So the coffers are filling up, 13 month is being paid and it’s 3% increase for ground staff and cabin crew after minimal negotiations.
However it’s 0% increase for the pilots who are clearly not part of the effort to restore the company to profitability.
So before we sign up to an inferior deal thrust upon us in the coming weeks, with no pay rise, shouldn’t we ask ourselves whether this is acceptable in any shape or form?
Our new DFO is already bragging in the SCMP that the deal is done and we’re going to sign. The smugness oozing from his weekly missives is no less nauseating.
Our we really going to hand him such an easy victory and enhance his ego in return for nothing?
