Get a grip!

When I think that only 3 months ago, you were all complaining about the guys who "accepted ****ty deals" or "eroded the contract" by joining on POS18.
If you guys now accept any ****ty deal thrown at you because you're scared in the short term. THINK about the long term effects. You're going to have a ****ty contract for the remaining 5/10/15/20 years of your career!

Anyone, previously or now, who signs COS18, more than likely tried to justify their actions with - I can do this and then move on to a better company, better lifestyle, better rosters etc. and life will be good.. That thread of justifying your actions is now officially dead, forever !!

Short term thinking will inevitably backfire.. You want proof, simply look at how CX is managed, who they choose as managers and the resultant 27 years of chaos.
