Liberia, the world's historical centre for the acqusition, processing, indoctrination and export of slaves.
"Harrr! Cor, me lad! Think of the profit we'll make from this cargo of likely lads. Look at 'em, fine specimens, rich daddies all! Hoho! £25,000 profit each for no effort at all! Arrr! Were go'n be rich beyond yer woildest fantasies!! Mind yer don't spoil 'em by paying 'em anything, no holidays, and by God don't feed 'em! Spoil'em, that will - treat 'em mean, keep 'em hungry and keen! Can't afford it anyhow. Harrr! Plenty more where 'ey came from!! Dividends? Zooks no lad, 'ere'll be none left after our share, harr!
Grabs a dingy grey-clad slave's pet parrot, strangles it with relish and sells its feathers to a passing tinker for threepence, which he pockets. Cuffs slave for good measure, mutters "rollout engagement initiative next week"; exits stage left, limping due to the vast bags of gold in his bulging pockets.
Mr Wilberforce, where are you?

Why only the "useful" ones, if you are in Easy you will hear soon enough when they ask for bods to go there, if you are not ? well, as previously stated,
Likely bases
Hell, Mars , Planet ZOG (most new entries to the company already based here it seems ) Sodom & Gomorrah dual basing , provide your own transport, Up your own @rse, up someone elses @rse, in a coma, on a drug induced cloud if you saved in advance.
Guys, how can you get even remotely excited as to where you will be living as you take it , unlubricated, up the @ss.
For chrissakes, grow up , and see what your "job" is becoming.
Is being in BCN any more palatable than being in LTN ?

Don't work for them, never worked for them, would happily work for them if they offered me DEC in BCN on decent conditions, merely p1ssed off that we wonder about the minutae, whilst the whole profession goes down the toilet.
No offence, but there are bigger fish to fry in Easy methinks, particularly if you are an F/O, but for sure it will crawl onto the Capt's plate in due course

Cmon-PullUP,
Even better, join Ryanair, 37 bases & counting . . Inc (soon) Faro & Malaga !
Having been happily thus ensconsed in Girona I know where you are coming from, but do you really want to end up earning less than the guy that drives you to the airport in the bus,(& he can retire early & survive just fine thanks, well at least in GRO )
Oh, and BTW, did you ask what social contribution your company, or indeed what did you make ? in your happy new country that you live in, so if the sh1t hits the fan will you will have some dosh till you sort yourself out ?
Club 18/30 & a bit of f@rting around with jets is great. . . up to a point, but it isn't the "real world".

Slightly off topic, but it sounds to me that people in Easy are becoming more and more unhappy. Does anyone have the "pleasure" of having worked for both Ryanair and Easy? Is Easyjet the new Ryanair?
