QF94,
Is that your age and are you one of these part timers????
Gas Bags, to answer your question in one word. No.
I just observe what's around me and see what the hacks are doing to the place. If you have noticed, a few AME's have in recent months left the airline and have even left the industry, due to the fact that they were told by the S.I.T. ops manager that there will be no training, even though they were well on the way to completing their SOE, or had the SOE completed and just awaiting training.
There is even a prime example that an AME who has a CASA licence and a company type rating will not be acknowledged as a LAME on the eQ system or payroll system, because he had done an external type course.
What does this say about one's initiative to improve one's self, but is stepped on by management because it may cause a budget blow-out and affect the LAME/AME ratio?
I correct my figure of 12 LAME's that went to Base. 1 AME was included who had done a company course but didn't convert it to a licence.
Gas Bags, as I have answered your question, who are you?
