Being paid monthly and being able to leave on that basis is absolute tosh. There is nothing in european legislation that allows that
Notice times for both parties are dependant on contract of employment in our case QR's
In civvie street if you have worked for a company for more than a set amount of time, I think it is 7 years, then by law the Minimumn notice they can give you to leave is 90 days!!!

All this comes from an employment specialist at a firm of solicitors in Bristol

I think the underpants on the head and the pencils up the nose saying wibble is the best way ahead
Go for the stress route if you are serious

If the mighty CDT chimps turn up at your unit and you're selected from a cast of hundreds to have a pee, refuse to do it and hey presto you've won an admin discharge.

Not the most sensible route however, it does work, I've seen it happen.

That should do nicely. :ok:

No, that'll get him promoted...:E

Mymatetcm is correct, if you register to run for public office you get to leave. You could, as someone I know has done recently, PVR and request early dismissal. Alternatively challenge the system and let us all know how you get on.
That used to be the case but I think they closed it in the 60s. Now, IIRC, you actually have to get that public office appointment before you may leave.

Given that you may be an MP and a Reservist there is perhaps no reason why you could not be recalled for reserve service after you got elected :(

I was under the impression that you had to provide a £5000 deposit to run for public office, which you lost if not elected.
Unless you win, and inherit everyones trivia, it's not very cost effective when compared with a PVR (or going on the run in the Far East)

Being sad and looking for the way out myself :} , it's covered in QR 606 and 607 if you want some reading time tomorrow. Well for Airmen and NCA at least.

Thanks for that - I did say it probably wasn't the right answer - and I did wonder why a North Canadian Airway was posting on Pprune...

It may also be worth checking if your Station Cdr has any pets :E

I have a friend that was nearly thrown out for getting a BJ from the wife of a local dignatory at a BoB party.

It might work for you even though it didnt for me ....... him

Interview question:

"We notice that you left the Service before the end of your engagement.
Please explain why you did it and how"

Consider answer to second part carefully......
