Couldn't organise a piss-up in brewery with a company credit card.

It would be delusional to think they thought of us as anything more than a number with an associated cost.

Just a number

Skier: very true.
Every now and then this is highlighted for those who may have forgotten for a while!
Thanks for the reminder, EK! Can't wait for the next one (roster time??)

Anyway......this is simply one more example of how we, as employee, are respected......
What makes me feel frustrated is that even though things like this happen most of us go into discretion, go the extra mile and so on......
maybe it is time to send them a signal whenever the occasion comes......

To them we are just cheap workers / bus drivers. The day we interiorise this concept we will become happier all of the sudden. Nothing is gonna change. They will continue treating us like kids and they will continue to disrespect. And they will do the bare minimum effort to keep the flow of innocent / uninformed new joiners coming.

I don't expect anymore. My life is much better now. Just counting the days / months / years keeps me motivated. You can install a countdown app in your desktop, that's what I did.

The basic tenant to understanding employment in the METO

It's amazing how simple life is when you get this concept, and yet everyday you hear of red faced, spittle ridden, blood pressure elevated individuals who thump the table and howl "but it's not fair!!!"

I need to rectify and apologise. The glass still being half full, after one more deadline for pilots is busted due to commercial reasons, ..... does not stand in front of an Aussie!

I still stand by my being completely p!$$ed off by the company. Like many others, i'd like to book flights and accos with my family for the seasons festivities, but do not know if leave is on or if my bid will be honoured.

The Don might have just checked the Leave Records on FOIP, LASS is still closed. I canīt see anything either (which could of course mean I didnīt get any). Perhaps they update by fleet...
