Well now Brokkenrider & ZBBoy, I am really puzzled by your latest posts which appear to defending easyjet while at the same time slagging them off. Although there may be some truth in what Brokkenrider says about LoCo and Balpa, anyone reading these posts cannot but fail to be impressed by the way any discussions by these "professional" pilots always seem to degenerate into childish slanging matches.
I wonder, are these guys are actually allowed to command passenger carrying jet airliners?

Well, my point is that we are our own worst enemy by not sticking together, and EZY is using that in a very effective way against us.

I'm not defending EZY though...reread my post(s) please!

Sorry I just can't see the contradiction between the fact that I enjoy my job, and the fact that I believe pilots deserve a tad more recognition in the orange world. What we asked wasn't much. Don't worry this won't affect your bonus, Santa. I would never slag easyJet off, as you say. The company is much, much more than just it's management, which you seem to be part of.

If you can't understand this you need to get your head checked...

"Without the goodwill we show everyday not a single eJ aircraft would depart on time"

I agree with Santas Little Helper on this one, and I am sorry to differ! Is that not what you are paid to do??

I believe all other airlines report 1 hour before departure.

"We could also give up trying to improve slots, negotiate direct routings with ATC, or chase up a missing fuel truck or caterer. There are many examples of how our "goodwill" enables the company to maintain a decent-ish schedule"

Is this not called being a PROFESSIONAL pilot??

"I am quite satisfied. I've got the base I want, and I love my job, and the people I work with"

All this and a stable roster and you still moan.

As I said before some people will never be happy. I am sure if you got the unrealistic pay deal that you expect you will only find something else to maon about.

"This is why we NEED to secure the best pay deal now".

I consider that now will not satisfy you, and you will be moaning about your pay every year.

I think it is about time you left LoCo flying. It is clearly not for you.

It is dissappointing to see some of the comments and abuse nuageblanc is getting. I think some people on this forum need to take a "chill Pill".

It also disappointing that anyone who disagrees with the few negative comments here are either accused of being management or that they need to get their head checked. Given that there are over 1500 pilots in easyjet (so my mate says), the percentage posting about this issue is extremely low. Maybe it is not such a big issue for others but I am sure time will tell.

I think strike action will pi** o** a lot of people not least your customers and you need their loyalty to survive this very competative industry. You will also not get any sympathy from the public because they consider that you are already paid enough for the job you do.

I think it's about time you join EZY! ;)

Anyway, since you have nothing useful to say on this subject I will put you on the ignore list. (Wonderful feature!)

Enjoy your current job, have lot's of interesting chats with your 'mate' about how great EZY is and good luck with your next attempts to pass the EZY selection! :ok:

Zbman, ( my friend Jean -Marc C.), before Easyjet you were a CTC cadet at Monarch out of manchester (always complaining), and before that you were a wanabee somewhere in the East of France ! so please be honest with you, be honest with us !
I think you are a bit young, you need to learn what life is, and you will find out that Easyjet is not so bad, and if Easyjet is very bad, just leave it and you will be replaced by one of the thousands guys in the current deep holding pool :ok:

Guillaume.

I tell you what ZB MAN - if I were in your shoes I would be dying to give a very few of the posters on this site their "totties" as they say up my way. I trust you and the family are well.

Ezy Deal
 

Hello All,

Would someone mind private messaging me the current deal for U.K based EZY pilots.
I used to fly for EZY based at LTN and am now overseas however keen to return at some stage.
Good luck to all at EZY and BALPA!!

Toolongincruise,

there is no "Deal for UK based pilots"?!
What do you mean exactly?

Nuageblanc you just crossed the line. No need to identify anyone, whole idea is to speak your mind without fearing repercussions. I'm no Inspector Cluseau but have identified the target of your misplaced, ill informed crock of !!!!!e. If you want to play that game tell us your name if not shut the :mad: up and go start an argument on a forum that actually applies to you

ok

Tes un bel enfoire!!

If there ever is a ballot in this seemingly unending saga, I would be most surprised if the vote is any better than 30% in favour of a strike.
Some people, even some French people, seem to be born to strike. It is in their reactionary and revolutionary genes but most of the time they spout rhetoric which makes a lot of noise but means very little.
Get on with it, for heaven's sake.

People don't vote in favour of a strike, people vote against a lousy pay offer. There's a fundamental difference in that...

Not this time they didn't :ugh:

No, not this time either...:uhoh: Gotto be nice to be manager in ezy, you can pull just about any b****t because the pilot force will just roll over and accept it anyway!

Members have accepted pay offer - 68% voted yes.

I'm not surprised, same old story...
First offer strongly rejected, second marginally better offer (and I do mean marginally!) is then accepted....
Not sure there is going to be any powder left for future battles now, but if at least the CC wouldn't "recommend" offers in the future, thereby forcing the pilot community to use their brains!
How the company managed to blackmail the CC in accepting this offer, I will never know!
:ugh: :ouch:

So,
Could someone possibly explain the offer that has just been accepted to someone currently floating in the hold pool?
:p
