Weekend/night time surcharges.

Why? and why do we put up with it? Because we do not make enough fuss, our trade organisations do nothing, but the main reason is that they can get away with it. I do not think the travelling public would accept a 50% surcharge on his air ticket for flying on a Saturday so why do we accept it. What is the reason for a surcharge, we are in a 24/7 industry?
