A further thought regarding ARAPA recipients. Considering what the management has been able to do to us over this end of year debacle, do you honestly think that letting them steamroll you like this, without ANY reaction from you individually, is going to protect your ARAPA past the end of the year? I seriously doubt it. In fact, I believe that the rather cowardly reaction from the majority has all but ensured cuts at every level of our package. You have proved to our management that they can do whatever they want. Congratulations. Enjoy your 'career'. If you weren't willing to even call in sick for a few days (particularly the Captains, who have been deliberately insulted and disrespected), what chance of you ever taking real industrial action.
