That precious gaz bloke doesn't understand, so I may as well enlighten him..
Specialists are in short supply and don't need to turn up in country centres to make a $. They can make enough to live comfortably by not flying out to the bush.
I know quite a few and they all put in longer hours than any duty time put in by pilots, and they do it week after week and don't whinge about their long and late rosters. Without their country visits, sick country folk would have to spend a lot more money, time and effort traveling.
When precious gaz has to wait an extra 4 hours, it is not because his doc is having it off with his receptionist (usually that is) but because some other poor bastard has some serious iliness which needs more time.
So precious gaz, a pox on you, and a wish that when you are sick, the attending doc can't get there because of late or nonexistent flights, and you get to reflect in misery on what a
pr**ck you really are.
what goes around comes around...
