We the shareholder laud Alan for the splendid work and stellar performance he displayed in the Senate. Everyone was against him, it would seem that nobody likes a winner? It seems that because Alan is Irish the Senators and public want to cut him down? Tall poppy syndrome is obvious.
No matter how hard the Senators try, the public, the government and the unions - you will not remove Alan nor the board from their posts. Let's face it, a half billion dollar profit and you all think Alan is a bad CEO? How absurd.
Australia needs Qantas, for sure, but Qantas needs Alan.
Try as you may you won't roll Alan. We the shareholder are very pleased with out leader, and Qantas is to powerful to be undermined by a handful of union members. Any airline who can puppeteer the government, regulator, public, and media will reign triumphant. You must start to listen to the man, yes, when Alan talks you should listen. Trust is earned not bought, and Alan has truly earned your trust, he implied that himself. Give the man a chance, he has feelings you know, he is also human and has emotions, a life, a 'partner' so give the man a chance. Embrace the man and his ideologies, think outside the square, don't fight us join us. Life is too short to see management and unions squabble over payrises, work conditions, job security, folly such as that. Give the man a go, I implore you.
