No it’s not impossible, there’s this thing called OPERATIONAL REQUIREMENT (aka major restructuring) which is exactly what the CX group will be going through, starting Q4.
This is exactly what they will use as a grounds for a
fair dismissal (here’s your new contract, take it or leave it), and they have the full backing of any judge and court. The AOA knows this, the DPA knows this, all of them powerless, nothing to “negotiate”.
For them to even suggest 50% pay for a year is laughable.
In a previous post on another forum I mentioned how this is going to play out, the 49er fiasco can be used as a prelude:
Under probation - ciao
High sickness record - ciao
Poor performance - ciao
Failed upgrades - ciao
Outspoken on Social Media - ciao
Extra fuel/no RETI (no good reason) - ciao
then only do we get to LIFO (per fleet, per rank)
In a nutshell, anytime you
cost them money, you’re a target - open season on 1 October.
Hold onto your underpants - it’s going to be a rough ride.
