Truth be known this was no management plant (wish it was; know how much those fat cats get in allowances and share options) Alas, the fat sh*fting from behind has seen a 1.92% overall proposed salary increase for me. So yes I share the same anger and disbelief that this insult was even entertained by BALPA. The obvious clever use of mirrors and hidden wires by Company management may have blinkered our negotiating team, but those of us grubbing around on foggy days can see the 'numbers on the dials'. The offer is already on the table, so there is nothing to lose by flicking the finger at this p*ss take and going for more (40% minimum?) after all, 'they can hardly offer less: that would be a pay drop! (Perhaps they think we won't notice?). We have the power to play for more, vote NO, Prepared to take industrial action!.
No doubt old 'love hertz' will take a crack, but what would you expect from a bunch hoodwinked into accepting this sort of 'Magic' pay award illusion.
