Spare me the blubbering about how tough the Maun charter companies have it. A few companies have a lot more trouble with pilots catching the midnight express than the rest, and with good reason.

If you dont want fighting and drinking and poor decision making then maybe it's not a good idea to hire almost exclusively men in their early to mid twenties who have never held a job before, especially in a town with 0 available women and too many bars.

These operators want cheap migrant labor. Hire inexperienced guys, train them as little as you can get away with, and move them out the door in a year or two before they start getting uppity about pay. They aren't interested in offering any kind of incentive to stick around and become part of the community so why should any of the pilots care about what that community thinks about them?
