Whilst I agree that many of our problems are management created...the
true irony is that most of the people managing us are pilots or ex-pilots!
In my company the FOM is a pilot, so are all his negotiators, so is the dork who does our crew planning (including leave and seniority), and now the CEO is also an ex-pilot!!
And they are screwing us.
Yes, pilots are whingers...and backstabbers, and social climbers, and ambitious b'stards who climb over each others dead bodies to get to the top of the mucky pile.
Having a bad day today. Sorry.
