So there was little reason to panic after all.

Sometimes those people standing back can actually tune out the negativity that people in a blind panic emit.:p

Tell that to the CHC engineers who have already been told they are redundant and to the Bristow and CHC engineers who have been told their jobs are "at risk".

that would be wishful thinking, sadly:ugh:

I reckon Shell Management should pop up to Humberside and let his views be known face to face. All very well saying 'stand back and it'll all be okay' What a knacker!

Shell Management? I know which school of management too!

If shell management really works for Shell then it explains why along time ago a Red company didn't bother bidding for Shell contracts. They made more money ad hocing to repair the messups that Shell management made by trying to micromanage their main helicopter supplier;)

As for the Humberside issue both companies have behaved poorly during the transition process - only 2 days to go and I don't know if I have a job or am being made redundant :confused:

Got a letter from HR though thanking me for the good job I have done for the company for the last 20yrs and how sad they were to see me go:ugh:, unfortunately the cheque seems to have detached from the letter:(

No Surprise there then.

If you actually read the thread you will realise I was responding to Sliding Doors, the OP, who had written:

So, not happy for all eh and thats my fault?

So what you are basically saying is that you are posting about a topic you know nothing about and just feel you have to make ill informed posts.

All,

Shell Management ("Mollusc Management", as I prefer) appears in many PPRUNE forums, and elicits similar responses from many subscribers. My advice fwiw, "Don't react....while you're re-acting". There are those, who just for the intellectual fun of it, will always take a contrary view, SM is one of those. Don't encourage him or feed his habit, ignore him - and he'll go away.

Well redundancy/retirement now beckons as I leave Humberside for probably the last time:ok:

I must say that I have enjoyed my time there, flown with some very able and professional pilots and am glad that most of them have got what they wanted. I hope the other members of the 365 brethren also get what they want.

I will think of you all at 0600 as you report for a dark, maybe wet and windy flight out to the RN or Cleeton:E

I will miss the cheery banter with the engineers who gave me a safe and serviceable aircraft to fly over the cold N Sea, though not the dreaded " there will be a ground run on EU at 2200";) and the Ops staff/rampies who always remembered to remove the chocks.

I wish you all the best with your new jobs with Bristow/Global/CHC.

JD

Good luck JD with whatever plans you have. Hope we can still have your contributions here.

Cheers JD, and may I wish you all the best in your retirement. Hope you keep posting on here tho. :E

All the very best to you JD its been a pleasure working with you! For what its worth you are better out of the s**t that has been the last 6 months!! I no doubt will have to endure this again at some point in the future, being a relative Derbyshire whipper snapper, lol! Keep posting dude:ok:

Come on JD, don't have us believing you're not grinning all the way to the treasure chest buried at the bottom of the garden!!

Hope you have fun ground running up North.

All very odd yesterday, one A shift crew, one G shift crew. No fighting over the food, loads of room on the ramp, no queueing for fuel. Simple, unchanged program of flying....no fun at all!

IHP

I have the plans for your hat and can even post a pic of it on here :E

JD

He must be an American - arriving late;)! Won't be able to help me unless he has some more gold in his saddlebags:E

Best wishes to the Humberside professionals:ok:
