Read between the lines !

Great ad on flightglobal.com

757/767 F/O's for an outfit in Italy.

Blue Paranoia ? . . Sorry, Blue Panorama methinks.
Having had the pleasure of spending one Summer Season there, I would suggest you consider whether the forward planning responsible for suddenly realising on 9th May that you require some F/O's to start an OCC on 16th May could be in any way a reflection of the level of "planning" you might expect during your 5 mth contract
Anyway, nice chicks in the cabin, & you will surely enhance your CRM skills with the local Capts, whilst simultaneously enhancing your ability to "read between the lines" whilst consulting MEL & Duty & Scheduling limits . . . enjoy ! !

Sounds like Italian SOP actually. When I flew on two consecutive ACMI contracts for Italian Operators out of MXP and FCO, our flights would frequently change at very short notice, even on the day of departure, instead of Varadero we would fly to Punta Cana (with a corresponding scramble to d/h a crew for the return in there...). Sometimes these "substitute" flights would operate at the same time as the original flight, with no mention of the original flight on terminal monitors. If asked what would happen with the pax for say Varadero, invariably the answer would be "is a no problemo".
Go figure.

But still love the country.
