Tread carefully here lads, lest you be accused of hypocrisy.

On one hand you are happy to endorse que jumping via an mou to take commands and base postings over your bretheren who have been waiting either for an upgrade or a return to the base of choice...

Yet on the other hand you are struggling to restrain your excitement that more of your fellow aviators might be soon out of a job. Even those who are stating they would welcome the unemployed into their ranks are placing the caveat that it be at the bottom of the seniority list.

Everyone else's job seems to be "your job".

I understand the frustration many of you have felt at mainline over the years, but its always worth putting yourself in the other mans shoes and honestly thinking about your reactions given the same circumstances before deciding to post your thoughts on a forum like this.

The main cause of road rage is not traffic congestion, it is anonymity. When you meet someone on a footpath and see their face your far less likely to react in the aggressive manner you might when concealed in the anonymous bubble of your car.

This forum breeds aviation road rage of the worst kind.
