EGNT Days

The sad thing about the situation at EGNT is that - I believe - 99% of the staff would have been happy with a modest reward for their hard work (the companies success, on going change etc.).

However - like most companies run with the CEOs bonus being the single most important factor - an appauling industrial relations situation has developed and it is now very difficult for either side to relent.
If people are treat with utter disresepect, they will utlimately kick off.

We have had to sit and watch Parkin earn more and more money, spout alot of clap trap about market rates and watch our own salaries reduce in value. He'll be gone soon, with a bit of luck, and hopefully will be repalced by someone with blood in their veins and not someone espousing the American dream everytime they open thier gob.

I've been the victim of strikes before and would hope - difficult as it is - that any inconvenienced passengers will take a look at the broader picture.
