Grrr Couldn't organise a P!## Up in a Brewery

I too have been called up by Op's not once, twice,.... BUT 3 times since getting back last night re: additional hours on offer.

What the hell is going on ???


First its too many crew, then we're short, then there's too many oooppps no we're short again..

Is it that hard to plan an operation around crew numbers, aircraft delivery, maintenance etc.......or are the boffins/accountants aka clowns that run this joint have any idea what it takes to run an airline.....

Guys its time to put away the abacus for a while and start running the operation via Aircraft numbers,maintenance schedules, block hours planned,routes,pax demand, seasonal variances AND CREW ( tech & cabin) NUMBERS. Simple !.....even a stubby dope like me could do it.

Will be interesting to see what happens at the profit announcement tomorrow re: the tripler. Rumour has it....... that QF have at last woken up from their Dixon induced slumber and realise that they have been badly let down by the Boeing spin doctors. Watch for a 777 -ER announcement.
