The grass is not that green
 
Logged on to see whats new and once agian i am amazed at the hoops some pilots have to go through to A. Land a job and B.Keep it.
I work as an F/o on a 767 for a carrier in Canada. And the more I look the more I think i will stay put and take my kid swimming. I would not be able to do three or four days of testing and I dont want to know what a shrink thinks of me .

I well understand this point of view. I am not in the airline biz but have chosen to work free lance for over ten years.

If I ever think, "What a bunch of monkeys!" I can comfort myself by knowing that in a few weeks (or months) I shall be working for another bunch of monkeys! :rolleyes:

This way, I can do the job and not get drawn into the politics and general **** of climbing the greasy pole. Whilst some 'suits' do still use me as a scape goat - as long as I get paid, I don't mind anything like I did when I was permanent!
;)

Paxboy - good perspective. I'm just getting started in this consulting lark, and I must admit that the positives of exchanging todays tosspots, for a different set of tosspots next week, had not jumped out at me. Nice one.................
