We don’t reward front end crew. We don’t want to inflate their already inflated sense of importance. It’s not good managing.
It is expected, that is what we pay you for to save the day when scheduling, maintenance, loaders or ground staff screw up.
Do you think we pay you to fly on Sunny days; we can get monkeys to do that. Pilots are just a bit smarter than your average monkey and you are expected to save the day because of Corporate System Failures.
When the first aircraft crashes, we will label that pilot as an incapable monkey and blame him/her because of our corporate systematic failures. We will not be held accountable.
If the pilot was labeled as tired, we will blame the monkey for extending his/her duty day. No accountability for any Manager.
Pilots get their overpaid reward the 26th of each month and when they retire, but we are always finding ways to reduce it.
And yes, you get the privilege of Staff Travel, which is one of the best in the World. We can take it away at any time.
