hugh,hugh,hugh...that's not how it works here at aer fungus...management under-crew aircraft( they do that with their ever so famous 2 week roster the second week being a shadow roster subject to change so in fact nobody really knows what they're doing until a week before)...you go sick or get roster amnesia the lad on reserve gets called to do your flight, he misses his golf game on saturday morning, and tells the lad he's flying with friday afternoon what a ***** you are for having screwed up his plans for the week-end, very interested in this bit of goss the 2 of them go out for a couple of pints and meet up with another crew that and you both get into a irish game called 'water the poison seed'....by the time they get back to EIDW the whole fleet knows who went sick on the fateful day......another day in the land of the begrudgers........the company thrives on it.
