And Skypatrol has summed it up perfectly, if money wasnt an issue Im sure most S/O's wouldnt want to do A to B flying at all. Unfortunately this is a revolving record argument, because money is part of the issue and everyone is at different stages of life and have different opinions on whats important and whats not. Yeah overtime is deserved I guess, but still when considering the overall package lets bring on wage increases for F/O's, unfortunately with new low cost caririers, new IR reforms, etc, this is more a dream than reality........
Now lets get to the serious issue why wont anyone accept my offer of employment as an S/O for my car?? Judging by the age of my bomb it would equate to an S/O in a 747-200 lol. Jeez I cant wind the window down while driving, and changing my radio station is a safety issue, godamn i need an S/O! I could even install a galley in the rear seats! And they could hand over the money when I order a junior burger at Macca's now thats essential requirements.. Wow Im on to something now, but Ill only employ you on an individual agreement... thats the future you know!

Great people overall with good attitudes until a twenty something year old QF second officer rocked up bragging about how much more he got paid compared to the 737 FO's.
This SO w@nker doesnt sound very social,stable or professional. What person bags the crap out of the HOST of a party they're invited to?
Hopefully the guys who interview me will also be my god parents

Poto (page 2 post) please tell me that "pal" is not making a comeback as a term used by airline pilots, particularly when addressed to a person who is quite obviously not your "pal".
How tragically immature it is and reminds me of the red headed Irish fool who headed the AFAP many years ago. Every second word was "pal". Probably wore a baseball cap too, with the sunglasses pushed up on the peak even when the sun was shining brightly.
It's similar to a FA using "like" in every sentence. If you want to be treated as a professional would wish to be treated, then speak as a professional speaks. Don't speak or behave like a westie.
