It's interesting that many pilots at Emirates seem to fancy themselves as managers. I say interesting because pilots, historically, tend to make pretty bad managers. It's also interesting because the same people that bore me to death for hours on end on the flight deck, banging on about how management are useless etc etc, go instantly berserk if management try to interfere in aviation, which apparently they are incapable of knowing anything about because they've never been pilots. The irony of this is usually lost on them.
Just an observation, but I think the subject of company management should be added to religion and politics as being best avoided in polite company.
