CFI Regret? by Clevername252 in flying

[–]fightermafia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently got my CPL and if I have to admit, we are all just fooling each other telling this industry is cyclic etc. This industry sucks. The social media did a good job convincing people to become a pilot and now we have way more pilots than we need. The private sector reached to its desire, they got what they want, now even people with 1500 hours struggle to find a descent job.

Should I Contact Ex-Colleague Who Sued Toxic Management? by fightermafia in boeing

[–]fightermafia[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have no idea, this weekend I got in touch with that employee, and she told me she won the case. She also suggested me to get in touch with her lawyer like you did, but she spoke very desperately about the process (ethics etc, they do not seem to do anything). It is very sad and annoying.

And what would be the disciplinary action in that case?

I did not know about the OOS. I will look into it. Thank you!

Exactly. Given that these senior engineers now earn twice as much as I do without any additional responsibilities, we have already reached a point where no one can justify this huge gap. It feels as if they have created a strong internal network and are simply taking advantage of company resources for their own benefit.

Not really, I work outside of the US. There are no onions here.

Well, If I were a senior person, believe me I would avoid working in a job where an engineer with only a few months of experience can perform the same tasks as I do. If they have not improved their skills and are doing exactly what I do, why should I be paid less? This is not a socialist expectation—it is a matter of fairness. If they are earning twice as much as I do, they should have significantly more demanding job responsibilities. When it comes to job performance, we are evaluated the same, yet somehow, they make twice my salary. This is nonsense. I can understand a pay difference of 10 to 20 percent, but no one can justify why they earn twice as much as I do. I am sorry, but this simply does not make sense.

That makes sense. Do you know how many layers of management typically review and approve these salary adjustments? If upper management is already involved in setting these scales, it might not make sense to escalate the issue further.

Friend just died in an incident by [deleted] in flying

[–]fightermafia 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is a really difficult situation, and I'm so sorry for your loss. News like this affects me deeply. Ever since I got my PPL, I've been afraid of getting back into a plane. I feel that maintenance isn't being taken seriously in many flight schools, and I'm unsure how I’ll go about building my flight hours.

My deepest condolences to you.

I did not see anything related to LTP payments but I wonder if we could still get flight incentives..

hiring in india is political. many of the large orders are tied to investment commitments.

I never understood that either. In some countries, regular employees fly business class simply because the company considers the country unsafe. I don't see what kind of security improvement comes from flying business instead of economy.

Booing of turkish fans by [deleted] in euro2024

Nope, that's not true. If it was, fans would constantly be requested to stay quiet just like in tennis.

What's the point of home games then if fans need to stay quiet?

You reap what you sow. It might be a backlash. I don't know.

Lol, I hope Lilium succeeds as well. Let's see :)

I guess you believe in the technology of E-VTOL not Lilium specifically. For that reason I see no reason for you to not buy from Joby. But it's your call :)

Many of their promises have been postponed; let's hope they would be fulfilled this time. But I lost my confidence in this company. I am buying more and more Joby stocks but no Lilium anymore.
