It's a great job, good people to work for and fun. But you are 20-10 gz based and if you are living in Europe after travelling that's 23-7 in reality. Don't come here expecting anything else as you will be miserable. I wish the agents would stop misinforning all of you.
Ha ha ha.........
What an absolute crock of ****.
I wonder which agency posted that.....
Its grindingly depressing. Brutal medicals, being screamed at by maniacs in the simulator, which recently caused one senior and respected captain to resign, no leave confirmed until a few weeks before, constant harassment by management over the smallest things, punishment culture.....f*ck...the list goes on and on....
FUN???? ......perhaps if you had just escaped from Pyongyang.....but not for any sane person.....
Last month, two guys were forced to be grounded because they had a "lightening strike". Even though they didn't fly through one cloud on the route, the engineers found a tiny hole on the nose, so pinned the strike on them.
The managers admitted that they hadn't done it, but someone had to be seen to be punished, so they got 15 days ground school - which involved staring at the walls doing nothing, without pay, as a punishment for a "crime" they did not commit. The sentence was later reduced to 10 days for good behaviour!
FUNNNNNNN
