A realistic attitude will get us further as a pilot group because it is worth remembering what we are up against. The Qantas IR machine won’t rollover and reward an employee group for taking PIA. In fact, they would probably love the opportunity to make an example of an employee group that holds the company to ransom.
PIA is the nuclear option if the company doesn’t bargain in good faith, not the weapon of choice as some believe. Those in the telegram app group chat who are beating the war drums about PIA (when the current EBA hasn’t even expired yet) are simply embarrassing themselves.
