More recruitment? :-/ It's been so quiet (many of us are not getting much work) and they seem to have too many staff already? That's just my opinion though. Maybe they have a plan we aren't aware of.

I've never personally been treated badly by crew on different contracts because I'm a casual. We all do the same job in the end and I believe most people acknowledge this.

Jack, I commute via public transport (until I finally get my Ps!), and quite a few other crew I've met do the same. They don't take your driving status into consideration.
