You call them up and say "I showed 30 minutes early and please start my duty clock" and they do and they are fine with that?

Also, how does the airline survive when you are on 'holiday'

How does your airline survive when you’re on duty?

"Men" in the terminal who cannot/won't pee at a urinal, use a stall instead, and pee on the seat.

The same as when I am off. If it takes showing :30 early then the company should schedule me :30 more early. I’m not a manager.

Maybe they are just preparing for when bathrooms are all coed...By peeing on the seat, they are giving others genders the full experience of shared spaces........

Personally, I’m not going into that stall unless I absolutely can not avoid it.....

So do you expect your FOs to happily work for free as well?

Re-read post 10521. Then let us know what part of NOT OBLIGATED
don’t you understand or is intelligible to you?

For clarification, as a rule, expats are not paid by the hour, but by the month with an override of X in excess of say 75 to 80 hours per month.

Look I’m probably like a lot of other people on the site and frankly don’t know that you’re flying foreign planes nor do I care.

Go to PPrune and take your attitude with you.

Agreed...but...35 minute turn, switching planes at the hub, after 0530 push on first flight of day...sometimes you gotta hit the nearest throne on the way to the next jet...
