Angel Ask yourself this?

I can understand how upset Aussies must be. Unfortunately, QF are only doing what most airlines are doing .... saving money. None of us like it. I impacts on our lives, but there is no point having a go at anyone in this part of the world for wanting to apply for the job. Its not their fault is it? Ask yourself this? If for instance BA did the same thing and set up a base in Sydney for Aussie crew, can you honestly say that none of you would apply because you felt it was wrong and insensivitve to take jobs of the Brits? I don't think so. At then end of the day, I think you will find that a large majority of your own staff will opt for the post and what a great opportunity it would be for them. Why don't you put your views forward to the people that make these decisions. As QFmike737 mentioned, bitterness between two bases is damaging.



No doubt I shall now receive a barrage of abuse!!!!
