I posted the following in the Cabin Crew forum when this topic was discussed. I made my comments well before the JQ media release.
Did anyone notice how this wasn't reported on in the Sydney Morning Herald or in the Australian or in any other well respected newspaper?? It was a biased story put by the Daily Telegraph. With all talk focused on the IR laws at the moment, i'm sure the editors would jump at any opportunity to print a story which would shock their obedient readers.
The reporting of the Daily Telegraph is of the same nature as that of Today Tonight and ACA.
I take what I read and watch with a grain of salt.

At the end of the extended probation the CSO's "operational performance" hadn't improved and management terminated the CSO's employment.
As a CSO myself, I believe the termination was quite justified.
