We got multiple emails recently expressing sadness about the young man who collapsed in front of his wife and two daughters while trying to peel some fruits from the kitchen. A stroke or sudden heart attack of a man under 40 is rather unusual, but when it hits, it hits harder than those up in age.
THY present management is experimenting with civilian rule using military vindictiveness strategies, and they seem happy controlling the subdued pilot group, at least the local one. The recent death of an Onur air pilot in Amman opening the L1 door, and this latest occurrence are hitherto indications of steering the ship in the wrong direction. MoT and DGCA in conjunction with THY are now redesigning new strategies of work that includes repression, and cost reduction, at the expense of innocent and hardworking employees who only desire to feed their nest specially in times of financial troubles.
But one thing is unacceptable, I was perplexed yesterday seeing the Snr V.P Ops or CP, whatever he wants to be called, sending emails to pilot comrads to feed the family of the besieged pilot; I consider this an affront to managerial strategies if not a disrespectful approach to the subject; Has he forgotten that the company he so proudly represents is 18 months in arrears of backdated pay for which they continue playing games with the union? This guy sits on a comfortable office room in a dumped building nearby the airport , flies maybe 10 hours a month, pretends he is Charles Lindberg and now wants to fill in the gaps of an infamous company at the expense of decent airmen? ARE THERE ANY ETHICS LEFT BEHIND IN THIS OUTFIT??
