Re: Qantas Seniority Joke

Is it true that they started some cadets on a particular day - say a Tuesday, (which was after another group who started the day before - say Monday) and then manipulated the system to give the cadet group starting after the others an effective seniority date of before them (the seniority list was changed a few months later without those who were being shafted being told)? This was the experience of a person I flew with several months back.

Keg, there was different situations in the past you talk about (periods of no recruitment) and slightly different circumstances to what is happening now from what I have been told. Personally, I don't care what anyone says, I firmly believe this is totally wrong.

For those of you not in Qantas, seniority is everything once you are employed. Being very lowly in rank means life can be tough, especially if you are lower than what you really should be.
