Quote ' never received a notice or call from the union asking me if thats what I wanted and either did anyone else'

Actually you did, last year ALL short haul crew received a copy of the draft EBA. If short haul crew had bothered to read this and THINK about what it meant you would have seen this was going to happen.

I was in short haul then and voted NO. I could forsee what Qantas was trying to do.

The short haul union have their own agenda, Daryl and Jo-Anne couldn't run a bake off let alone the short haul FAAA. The long haul FAAA have tried to have face to face discussions with them. The short haul union didn't want to participate.

And finally Qantas will not get what it wants this time. Having thousands of crew on strike for a week or more will cost them millions. They don't have enough crew trained up to do all the flying.
