OFT - Failure to complete will result in X-Factor removed!

[Maple 01]

Give everybody 3 months to get fit, and fire everybody who fails on the spot.

Nice one Tourist - how long does it take to train aircrew? How long for Techs? In the jockstrapper's world we bin all of those, regardless of expensive training and the fact that they are meeting deployment criteria for failing to meet up to some made-up mythical physical training 'standard' - and who pray tell will fix the aircraft and fly them? The new breed of 'supermen?' - might take a while to replace the fat wheezy boys!

Don't worry that your pilot or techy has bugger-all experience or knowledge and is thicker than mince, he can do the beep test up to level 15! - I'm feeling safer already

Now if you were going to bin people for coming up with badly thought-out half-arsed job creation schemes thinly disguised as fitness/operational training programs in a desperate attempt to get promoted I’d be right behind you

Naughty naughty Maple you just cant say things like that. As someone once said
cant think who though................
"Try spending a little less time eating, and use the time to do phys lardy. Have some personal pride, and stop being a fecking embarassment to your uniform.
Aint no obese Ethiopians? I cant quite see the connection between the RAF and some ethiopians. Maybe they are trialling the OFT for us.....
This woman is doing the 25kg box carry. She looks happy enough I guess but if she carries on like that she will damage her neck. She aint fat though.

I'm sure this used to be policy.

The Police force do, but it's pitifully low. Surely BT is the time to enforce a fitness mentality in our juniors that they will hopefully take forward throughout the career. Educate them young and give them the time once they're fully indoctrinated into the Borg.
