Huh. Reason we can't get the trips/leave/ days off we want is that the management take them all. Weekends off? Only if you're an office pilot. Nepotism? You bet. Oh and what about the World Cup trip? It was supposed to be done fairly in order that anyone could bid for the flight. What happened? A senior trainer turned up at the last minute and took the flight.
There's even a senior manager who hasn't flown for a couple of years still calls himself captain. Egotistic?
These are just a couple of other examples why folks like me are totally fed up.
