So you blokes are saying 18 months ago all pilots were over-paid for what they do and because of an incompetent management team should now take a paycut?

This paycut will be used as an example by every management team from every other Australian company to lower wages. QF management have already publicly made it known that whatever the percentage reduction that Virgin crew get, they will expect the same for all their entities.

18 months from now when everyone has been re-hired and we’re all on overtime (at 10%+ less pay) you will regret reducing your wages. Remember the folks that are pushing a reduction in pay are the over 60s who’ve already paid off their house and own the big boat/caravan/whatever and are simply trying to get through a few more years until retirement…
