JC Forced To Retire To His Hacienda

This little nest will be lined from gains of not just the 777, but of all the other Investment for Retirement scams like crew car hire and Rishworth all aired on past posts.

Now im back on the 76 with the 777 in the back pocket I care not for the chaos that exists. That millions is wasted on poor planning seems not to worry a soul - but try not making use of a used envelope in flt ops and there are looks of http://www.pprune.org/forums/images/smilies/sowee.gif

A little bird has told me that an impending case in the High Court, in which he was a star player as an inept manager who sacked a pilot who refused to go into discretion, is about to start.

Hed better hide the loot well

more money down the drain ( or in the pocket)?

Everything about the company is a scam, at least I managed to escape before things get even worse. Take the rating and run, there are loads of jobs around at the moment, its the only thing that will make them standup and listen. Can't believe they are still managing to recruit form other countries?
Obviously these new guys haven't heard the real story.

Incompetent Management

With incompetent managers like the dalai lama running things, what would one expect. No one seems to have the guts to stand up to this bully. He proves on a daily basis, that he has no managerial skills whatsoever. RBA really need to get rid of this guy, before they lose more good pilots!

Take D money and run

There is always 767 & Airbus jobs around, some with proper management who want their employees to stay and prosper. Just leave, they will never get the message and things will never change.

New Liquid Laws In Brunei

Turning the screw on the use of Amber Liquid is yet another reason for us to think about how green the grass is on the other side.

Talking Hisssss, spit, spit, it is I, the evil twin!!!

The evil twin of the Dalai Lama - Serpent New - is the crux of the problem really; along with hopelessly incompetent and inept work philosophy and lack of HR skills that the company demonstrates. "Bully" is the word that describes his behaviour best and he is thriving in a totally non accountable environment. One wonders if he's actually been egaged to bring the company to a grinding halt, 'cause sure as hell, he's doing it! Such a disgusting individual relies on spying, cultivates division, orchestrates discontent, threatens maliciously, prys into personal lives without cause or reason and reminds people of his "ill gotten" knowledge. A vile creature, most vile!

Really, he's just a shiver looking for spine to run up - so don't let it be yours.

Wouldn't you love to be so popular? What a backwater it has become.

Hi, I am a Muslim but out of courtesy and respect to Buddhists kindly refrain from using his Holiness name in your personal grievance!

Serpent New n Town?

No folks he is not new in town. His offical title is Fleet Manager, 767 Fleet.

Bob Hawke, and others before him, has given a factual account of this managers 'skills'.

As Flyingtoothpick pointed out, there was fleet joy when he applied to SQ and all had high hopes to see the back of him.

Newer pilots in RBA might not be aware that he was successful in the interview process and was waiting for a start date to join.

However, Senior Management at SQ were made aware of what a disgrace to our profession he had become within RBA, and revised their offer of employment.

Com'on

Tuckerman, cowardly words - ah the security of anomimity. Nope, not management, or a fan of; and as demoralised as all. But afford your readers accuracy, SN was not refused SQ due incompetence (too junior for reputation at the time?) - but rather impending pilot court case, which as FC he was necessarily involved in. I repeat, not a fan, just pi**ed at the misleading crap we read on Pprune.

Static, perverted views you says; wot rot! Me thinks you have been dining,winning and perhaps dilly dallying with the Serpent New. You have fallen under his spell. Mediocre as it is. Care for a game of golf, old chap!
Such a despicable individual who has utter contempt for all that don't kowtow to him and he's running the company - downhill!

BTW it WAS a good company, past tense! Prediction - more to leave very soon so don't be last, no use going down with the sinking ship. For the newbies, my condolences, you are about to discover a whole new meaning to reaming and demeaning. Shalom.

Sorry Static, think you have been sniffing the BS too long, time to get your head into some fresh air. This management is absolute crap, they are demoralizing to nearly all and sundry, without a care about peoples careers or their future developement. Many have moved their families to Brunei with the hope of developement and promotion, only to be shunned and pushed aside by these morons in management or training. Just Heard they are again forcing an experienced SFO out as he doesn't fit in with their mentality after he relocated all his family to Brunei.
I just hope others thinking of joining this circus reads all these comments and doesn't make the same mistakes as some of us have done.

RBA's Embarrassing Manager

Disagree Static.

SN had a well deserved reputation as somebody who lacked any moral backbone, and one who would without hesitation, ignor any legal requirment if he thought he could get away with it.

Unless RBA takes a clearer and tougher line on it's most embarrassing manager, it's credibility and perhaps even it's future will remain in doubt.

sad

brianigham,

If you are not part of RBA, then why bother posting. If its starting to sound like MAS, then bad luck.

Yes, this guy has no regards for rules. SN will work all day in the office and then fly a long haul, cause hes a 'company man'.

What sort of an example is that. Talk about unprofessional. unbelievable more like it. how does a guy like this get to be in such a position.
Its called 'localisation' folks.

Well, i am all for localising a company, but at what expense. If it means the company goes down the gurgler, like what is happening at RBA, then is it worth it. We have a CP who is way out of his league, (lovely guy mind you), and a fleet manager who is just plain incompetant, and a bully to go with it. I will not mention all the rest, but there are a lot of them.

Anyway, you see, what to do lah..

Sadly, Tucker Man, RBA's professional credibility was hugely diminished when the Labuan Lunatic was not summarily dismissed for the most willfully dangerous flying episode I have ever heard of, and subsequent dubious command promotions have not assisted matters. Knackered old 767s don't help either. Some good guys remain for whatever reason, but have an uphill struggle. However, as everyone knows, RBA's future solely depends on the will of H.M. not any other factors. Will be interesting to see what, if anything, transpires from the long anticipated court case though.
