Are QF pilots acting as a UNITED professional group? If so they're still getting done. If not, why not after seeing the 89 fiasco?
I reckon unions will only have any influence when market forces are on their side. Otherwise forget it. So right now forget it. Too many of us and too few jobs.
You could probabluy join many years before that mate, but you weren't getting represented. I know I wasn't when I needed some help a long time ago in a pay matter. I remained a member though hoping for better days, but they never came. So you could be a memnber, but you werent represented would be closer to the truth.
Whuy should I scrap out something with wiz. You made the ridiculous statement that being called iun on a day off resulted in a $1600 penalty payment and it is just NOt true. The fact ios that QF and ANsett costs PER HOUR were much less post 89 than pre.
NOW LETS GET BACK TO THE THREAD.
