Just had a guy , probably the worst, laziest and most basically incompetent and dangerous pilot I have ever flown with. After 6 sectors of line training, quite obvious that the guy in front of us was not one and the same as described in his glowing references addressed " to whom it may concern"
These references were genuine enough from previous employers. Readily apparent however that they were given in exchange for the guy resigning.....thus avoiding the inconvenience of formal disciplinary process and the worry, cost and time of a reference to an Industrial tribunal.
"resign Carruthers and we will give you a good reference"
Tempting to do it........but please dont!
