Sounds like something from the Russian Revolution. Strike comrade bruvvers, strike!
Countdown, if you don't like the industry, sod off out of it. Perhaps if you and a few others did it might indeed make the oil companies and operators pay attention but only for as long as it takes to get in some of the people out there who are gagging to fly on the NS, to replace you.
A National Day of Sickness? Get real!

To TAFF MISSED
Sounds like the management lacky has found a voice.
Your comments are not only rude but show the naivity with which you know the industry.I suspect you are either new low houred or as your name implies you have missed something.
Probably your brains.
For those of us who have been here a long time people leaving will not change anything in the short term until we have a voice that can be listened to nothing will change as is indicative of your comments.You will go far in management.If not already

Rude? Maybe. Insulting? No. I'll leave that to you.
So is a Day of Sickness going to give you voice? Surely the way to impress upon the 'management' (of whom I am not one I might point out)the seriousness of your concerns is not to stage what amounts to a one-day strike, but get your union or representative body to make it official. If they aren't interested, you're either in the wrong union or your complaints aren't valid (in their view that is).
A Day of Sickness would be an uncoordinated and not particularly well subscribed shambles which would enable 'management'to dismiss it as minority action. You may as well be writing on a toilet wall for all the good it'll do.

Stop the in-fighting, that is just falling straight into their hands.A day of action IS required but as Taf suggests get it organised through the union , do it correctly but don't forget a union is only as strong as it's membership.
Things have gone far enough time for action!

Touchy or what may I respectfully suggest that your not having been one does make it difficult for you or anyone to speak with the with the knowledge of experience or depth of feeling concerning the working practices and conditions on the north sea

I think you'll find, if you read some of the other threads, that Taff is an engineer. I also think you'll find he is equally qualified to speak on this topic as anyone else. Let's keep it sensible. I've written my letter, have you?????
