QF training

“Has Anything Happened to Qantas Training Since BKK?”

Some minor changes to keep the Safety Dept and media quiet, but, sadly not enough.

The same ‘60’s Tech v’s Cabin attitudes alas prevail. Most Cabin Crew do not engage with Tech Crew, considering most as elitist and “big headed”. Except for short haul, Tech Crew alas also are standoffish, and this is reflected in the workplace.
The Capt still sits at the front of the crew bus, the Cabin Crew at the back. As a rule the more senior the Capt, the worse he/she is at Managing/ linking. Then they are promoted to Management. What a company.

At the twice yearly EPC courses, a charade is played out. Everyone appears to interface and inter-act. That lasts til 1600 on the day. Next day on the aircraft back to standard operation, which is- you do your job, I’ll do mine.

Sadly since QF1, has anything changed?…….not enough.
