"no evidence of an action on the faaa’s part"
Did we really expect any timely action from our "personal agenda" driven FAAA. The JFK dispensation will continue without serious action or intervention. Our EBA will be up for renewal and once the new IR initiatives are implemented, VDD will get his so called "incredible IR people" to work through the Governments new IR initiatives and find every loophole they can to get as much of Qantas flying on low wage, overseas and contract staff . Regardless of how much "industrial flexibility" or "productivity improvement" Q LH delivers, it will never be enough. The goal posts will constantly be moved to new levels. How else can the "bonus driven" management keep the money flowing into their pockets. VDD has hinted at a LH Shanghai base with Asian FA's to fly through Singapore and Australian ports . Advice from management.... get with the program, this is the new Qantas.
