Are you guys serious?
In short you're saying f&*k all of my future cabin crew colleagues because I'm alright Jack!!
Unbelieveable! Why do you think we're in this position? It's beacause all the J* crews etc. said, "F%^k all those QANTAS cabin crew and their conditions! I want their job and I'm willing to accept such and such etc."
This willingness to hang each other out to dry is the only reason you're even discussing such a desperate attempt to preserve your pay and conditions. By accepting that people who do the same job as you should earn less money you're setting the precedent that will ENSURE you will be earning the same as them in time to come.
Why would management pay you 2x dollars when you've already shown you consider a reasonable cabin crew salary to be x dollars? Are your fellow cabin crew going to give a rats when you've already sold them out before they joined the company?
I cannot believe you people are willing to accept such a thing!!
Anyway, AWAs will make the whole debate academic in the next few years or so.
Rant over....
