Don’t mean to offend, but it almost seems like that is forgotten and people are actively working against the business.
Do people want to see it fall or feel like it can’t fail again?
It’s not people actively working against the business but rather people not going the extra mile anymore. Think extension denials, flying outside of reserve period, reducing rest periods, coming in on days off etc. Crew feel let down from all the cuts to terms and conditions, then throw in the general chaos out there and it’s no wonder people just don’t want to help out. The company has made it’s bed, it now needs to lie in it.
