Anyone know what the wooden posts are for that have being errected toward the back of the car park lining the engineers porta cabins?

Couple of company cars still there given the rust on the disc brakes plus the engineers vehicle.

Nobody has canx the milk either as it's creeping out of the bottle tops. Who should have canx'd that or do the administrators still have deliveries?

Any news of any buyers. All looks a bit sad with those aircraft impounded

All a bit final eh. Time to move on chaps.

The wooden posts were put there by the Airport Authority so that we could comply with DfT regulations i.e. cars must be parked 3m from the perimeter fence line.

Has anyone had a P60 yet which should have been issued at the end of May? I've just been getting loads of excuses as to why they haven't been issued - I dont know what today's excuse is but come on Payroll Dept and/or KPMG, you are all still on site. Those of us claiming Tax Credits and college EMA grants for our children need to have sent this info in for August or we lose our claims. What is the problem???

MOB Gone...

AT LAST HEARD TODAY THAT MOB LEFT ON TUESDAY along with Sarah, so no chance of him being involved with any new set up.

I am sure you will all join in with me and Cheers Buddy and wish him every success(only joking) hope MOB and future buissness plans of his suffer in the future, and hope he dosn't get the chance to ruin anybody elses life only his own the way he has planned and messed around with everyone at Emerald.

Hear also that all guys and gals are now getting sorted out with employment elsewhere and things are slowly but surley looking up, Well Done and the Best of Look to you all.

Good news for anyone dreading the JEM Accountable Manager getting a similar position elsewhere.

I am reliably told that the CAA will not approve any form 4 application that he would have to make to become an AOC post holder again, certainly in the near future, that goes for a few of his other lackeys that should never have held the positions they had in the first place.

All of those that have been stabbed in the back down the years can also sleep better in the knowledge that when this all kicked off one of the potential buyers strung him along to try and get him to sweet talk pilots, engineers and customers while behind his back they went to the CAA telling them that they didnt want anything to do with the clown and had no intention of keeping him after KPMG had given him the boot.

Anyone still a bit pissed off, trust me, your future is WAY better than that of our old friend.

Is it not strange that KPMG who are responsible for 'restructuring' have not made any contact with a vital part of any restructuring - the pilots??? Do they know how many are left?

'Restructuring' to KPMG means selling to the highest bidder, that is all.

Unfortunately the Car boot sale that was JEM is such an unmitigated mess that the price is sinking by the day.

Oh and DISAGREE if you are so involved at JEM like you say, you will appreciate that my posts on here have been a fair and accurate reflection of the shambles that JEM has become over the past months, and indeed even before. Its a shame that YOU and others couldnt have been a bit more honest with those at the coal face, most have been kept up to date by people not even employed by the company, if I were you I would cosider changing your name to ASHAMED, if indeed you are even involved at all.
