Stop brown nosing Jack and go and look for a job, Keg has thoroughly enjoyed taking a dump on the Jetstar pilots over the years - "sh*t money" "sh*t money" you are all on.
They've all blocked you, but I'll bite;


Jetstar Pilots currently earn SIGNIFICANTLY less than:

Widebody:
Qantas Longhaul Pilots
V Aus Pilots
Cathay Pilots
BA Pilots
Any Number of Commuting Contracts
…and the list could go on...


Narrow Body:
Qantas Shorthaul Pilots
Virgin Australia Pilots
VARA (Skywest) A320 Pilots
Tigerair Pilots

aaaaand from July 1 2015 (at least, if not already this year);

National Jet/Cobham Pilots (Both 717 AND 146 Contracts).


-Add to that, that Jetstar F/O's are currently earning less than Alliance F100
F/Os.
-In addition to THAT, their overnight allowances are less that ALL of these
operators.


OH! And they work harder for it!!


So, I guess it comes down to what an individual defines as 'Sh!t Money'… if you are comparing to others in the same industry then, well, Keg has a point.
