No Sunfish, Just purely a realist!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Turbo 5B, The executive are paid by the company when they are rostered on. They are not paid for their days off during the roadshow, this time is all voluntarily donated to the association and its members.
I think you get a very fair representation by the exec in more ways than are apparent to the average member.
I don't know, why do you think I am on the exec? Maybe I just keep close corresponence with someone who is or I have been on a past exec or belonged to another union and knew the workings of the ALAEA or maybe I am a nobody that has an interest in the continued good work of the ALAEA or maybe I just have an interest in the survival of the aviation industry in Australia or maybe I'd like to see you keep your job and feed ur family or maybe I don't want to see your job go to someone overseas or maybe I am an industrial reform advocate or just have an interest in industrial relations.
Many possibilities!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
