It might be 'lol' but it shouldn't be and it's a serious question that all pilot groups should be asking in negotiations along with the likes of:
Is the next batch of recruits into HR or Commercial going to be employed on reduced salaries and T&Cs than the last batch 6 months ago? Are the directors going to take a 5% pay cut with in line with the flighcrew (for Flybe readers)?
Is the next group of managers going to foot the bill for their training courses?
You know the answer so why have we, 'the pilot body', accepted the treatment doled out to us by bonus driven managment so meekly over the past 10 years?
Three weeks ago the RMT threatened to strike on the Jubilee Line over attempts to reduce T&Cs. 'Management' was back in negotiations before you could say 'Bob Crowe'.
