All this wittering on and on is sheer stupidity! I, for one, will not gloat over those unfortunates who are having to reapply for their jobs!
Like most large companies, we have managers who deserve their UB40's - and others who are worth their weight in gold. Unfortunately, Willie Walsh's axe will not, I fear, swing the cutting stroke in the right direction to p-prune the dead wood!!!
I fear for my own safety too - we've seen these management cuts before! The only trouble is, two years later, the management numbers remain the same (or greater) and the front-line staff numbers are cut!
If Willie Walsh was serious about saving BA's cash, he could, and should, start by slashing his own £12000 a week pay - until he's achieved something to deserve it!!!
