Do they still have the infamous 'D' list?

here goes my 18+ "years of service" down the drain I'm out and taking my "points" with me.... see you all in DAR ZAYED

what happens when f/o's in front don't have the required hours for upgrade? will more junior but experienced guys be given the opportunity ahead?

[jackbauer]

Yes they will.

did i miss something?

I've got the seniority list... Is there one that I am missing? Mine is an alphabetical PDF file.

The unfortunate part is that it is partly based on time served....for the 5 years they were loading bags at the terminal or just working in accounting and thought the uniforms looked better than the ones at the traffic directorate. Look this over carefully. It has been in the works for 2 years now. That is unbelievable.

its based on final line check in current position...

[Albergineman]

It is worthy to mention that the list is already out-of-date, there are many guys that resigned and their names are still there. This list was done on August...

[ironbutt57]

Yeah think it will be difficult for them to keep it up to date next couple months anyway...

It is interesting how things work at GF. At the beginning of September it was told us that the new seniority list was in progress and in one week it should be available and if we really wanted to know we just should go to the mess (ops! Operations…) and somebody would provide us our position. But then, the time passed by and at the middle of October they issued the list… made in August! It makes me wonder, how difficult is to keep the list updated? Ok, there are 3 lists for CP, 3 lists for FO and 2 lists for SO. It looks complicated but in fact it is easy to manage, the person in charge just has to delete the correspondent line from the Excel file and the job is done! And then save it in a .pdf file as they did. How long it could be taken and for how long should we have to wait for something closer to the reality?

Don’t miss the next exciting chapter of…


GF, together we can update it!

listening?? what? I can not hear you. Go to Wing C they will help you out. If that fails then come back tomorrow. There is no one left in the office. No one. This is tragic that it has come to this.
