And finally the organization itself is poorly managed by numpties who waste money on stupidity whilst telling you to be more efficient. All Sound familiar?

To quote one of the comments I read... "You've taken the best job in the world and made it suck." Sound familiar?
If the job sucks so bad, then don't join, just like at an airline.

That being said, I am available to fly the really cool airplanes in the US military on a part time basis. C-5, B-52, C-17 and some carrier landings for the navy are some of my preferences. Please don't call me for the boring stuff like a Metro.
