I would have thought that QF giving away any flying to a 3rd party when they have stood down pilots and the aircraft to do the job sitting idle would have been more a subject of angst than whether those pilots get a slim chance to fly for that 3rd party. It's QF f*cking you over, not QQ. If QF think the e-jet is such a wonderful fit, and wanted to really look after it's underemployed workforce, they would have dry-leased the aircraft. They just found another way to screw over their employees.
