"MAN is probably the only airport in the world that
sacked halve its workforce and slashed the remainders wages
by over 40% including inferior terms and conditions with Sh*** rosters only MONTHS AFTER 9/11"

Not quite. The very same thing has happened at NCL. Not just to Security but across the board from baggage and passenger services through the AFS and ATC. And for what reason. Well to lower the costs far enough for the to$$er who is now the aiport chief exec to entice sleazyJet in. They (sleazy) are charged a fraction per passenger for handling than the rest of the airlines that operate here (except possibly for Ryanair). This is at the expense of everybody who has had their wages slashed, pensions removed, holiday entitlement reduced and shift patterns destroyed. No wonder that people have little inclination to achieve targets when some halfwit (who incidentally has rewarded himself with a new Porche Carrera 4 which sits under 24 hour surveillance outside the security post in which sit the very people he has shafted) has ruined many peoples livelihoods!
Actually it wouldn't suprise me if someone topped him.
