Nothing like positive feedback from Mr Fixit....So Geoff Dickson is hell bent on AWA's....it seems almost like a repeat of history....The apprentice training school has been closed down in Alexandria, the training school is at a standstill, eventhough there is probably 6-12months of required CAR214 training to be completed, but Lighthouse said that would cost money...But the icing on the cake is managers meeting with Select LAME's to ask then to undertake A380 for no payment...forget whats written in the EBA's, they want to undermine individuals against each other!
So if history is to repeat, it wont be long before people leave in droves, the remaining people suffer from lack to experience, poor rushed training, unrealistic goals, but management will of course take their bonuses....Why do we have a bonus system in place for management? Surely a fixed contract for the right person for the particular position should be enough...
It interesting on another point, Dickson & Gregg taking a 12.2Million bonus each yet keep contanstly crying about the price of fuel and the down grade of the "Profit", the introduction of AWA's to each department and yet the 30-40 Million loss on Jetstar Asia isnt mentioned, the wasted money on repainting & reconfiguring the Australian Airlines aircraft back into the Qantas fleet...
Any criticism of any management decision is seen as a "Below the line comment"and will not be tolerated....

Sad to be happening to a company that has so many good hard working talented people.....
