These 'contracts' are a joke BUT the only reason that they exist is that a few poor souls keep signing up to them. This is the main reason for the huge downturn in pilots' terms and conditions. If we all held out for a good deal we could transform this business overnight and stop whoring ourselves to these people.
Before anyone criticises me for being in a cushy job and 'talking it up' let me tell you that I'm unemployed in 10 weeks time due to not accepting !!!!! terms.
We are where we are because we've never made companies really pay for the skills and experience that we gave so much to acquire.
Lawyers or doctors or accountants would never be treated like we are
