it really is time ALL Qantas employees told HR, Public Affairs and "The Comminications Team " (joke) to get stuffed with their use of corporate language.
As I posted earlier -all cabin crew are going to have to get used to HOSTING Y/C pax.....
"Ladies & Gents , I'm your CSM and your host for this evenings supper service is Supervisor Sally !! Come on down Sally and take a bow!"
However the truly gross misuse of language by management morons was displayed today when that goose from HR who calls himself the "head of people" (more like the ar*ehole) described the possible offshoring of thousands of maintenance jobs and the wholesale sacking of hard working Australians as an ....."ENGINEERING TRANSFORMATION". How can these tossers use quasi- biblical, religious words to describe the shafting of loyal employees?
Language usage such as this treats the Qantas worker with contempt. In response to Brownie's euphemism I could think of some more choice Aussie response from all of us.
I'd rather hear Dixon call a spade a shovel -that is to say--"I've got a big pineapple in my hand and I'm going to shove it right up our maintenance workers' Kyber ...NOW WHERE THE BLOODY HELL ARE THEY?!!"
