And all this while oil is slipping past $37/barrel. You've got to love the Logic Free Zone of Nigeria!
bottling peanuts you say ?....keep acting like Nationals are trained out of the company's milk of human kindness. Why are they so willing to let them go after the 5 year bonds are over? why is it still a 60/40 population ratio in favour of expats after 30 years of training ? Cadets are being sent to Florida and trained ab initio on the R44 while schweitzers are crawling up the walls, CPL with instruments alone runs up 250k when it shouldn't cost more than half of that. The company won't engage in a venture they have no advantage in.....Read Bristows hiring requirements for the "cadet" programme and see if you ever stood a mustard seed of a chance yourself. Its a good thing those who talked in a similar manner (Imlach and Akel) have been SACKED. The world has moved on old timer, that some nationals are trained by the company doesn't mean they owe a lifetime of gratitude. Its a two way street. Caverton took away half of the contracts before Houston finally woke up. You my friend, are still snoring. Enjoy your VSP money in silence, from the thickness of your venom, it seems you didn't even qualify for VSP when you were kicked out too.
