Fair Cop
Dear SAAB Pilots -
Once upon a time, not so long ago, when your company was being disolved and incorporated into the new SWISS, (So What It's Still Swissair) your management embarked upon a retrenchment policy for pilots based on pilot nationality first and seniority second. I don't believe that any of you complained about the stresses of your jobs back then when your little red passport guarenteed you a position in the new national carrier and possibly eventually, on the same seniority system, whilst systematically, unfairly and xenephobically disposing of the experience base including pilots mostly senior to all of you, in your once vibrant little airline.
As the father of one of those Great Australian Crossair Retrenched Pilots, all that I can say to you blokes is: FAIR COP! You chose to abandon your colleagues at a time that your employer was behaving disgracefully. Now take it like men and stop crying in public. Or as a good soldier might say: "Shut-up and die like a man!"
