Do feel sorry for those crew that will lose homes, marriages etc and won’t survive financially or mentally till then. Hopefully some can find other work. Many will not.
You would be better off financially being made redundant. If there was anything left you could return one day when re hiring commences rather than suffer the mental and financial anguish of 4-5 years of limbo on unpaid stand down. A 5 year unpaid standby where you can’t move on with certainty.
Raises the question of how long is it reasonable when at some point in time there is clearly no useful work for an employee?
Whatever is cheaper for Alan and QF. Got to pay for the all the executive share options. How long are the executive stood down for?
