CM,
Once again you are not listening...
This is he thin edge of the wedge for the company.
There is a much greater plan in the wind and when that happens everything in Sydney will change, quite radically.
My issue is that there was not even any consultation with the members as to the makeup of the OT Bank and how it is to work.
Especially with those in heavy maintenance who will be immediately effected, with all of Sydney Maintenance to follow in the very near future. This is where the members will not be able to say no, because they voted yes for a voluntary OT Bank.
Then when the next EBA comes along, if it is in an EBA form or not, they will demant compulsory and the assn will buckle yet again. Unless the talk of a major spill next june are true and come to fruition, that is.
Do yourself a favour steve and try to listen to what is actually being said by those of us on these pages.
