Thanks EK, much appreciated. I'm at EZY now and generally things couldn't be much better (for me, but not our cadets unfortunately) but Mr Brady is doing his best to Ryanise us, with the connivance of Balpa regrettably.
I've got 12 years left, love the job more than ever, but I fear for the future if the greedy self serving, short term, bonus obsessed managers have their way.
