Space Pig,
would you please elaborate on the seriousness of the current situation?
I'll tell you what I take seriously. Our new CEO been on the job for 6 months now and the atmosphere in the office has improved a lot. If you don't believe me, you probably were not at the end-of-summer party. There is still a lot of pressure on everyone there to produce, but communications are slowly improving and people aren't constantly looking over their shoulders anymore.
Our HR manager has been on the job for 2 months. In that time he has surveyed a large percentage of the staff, appointed key people to work with him and presented the results of the survey. To me, these showed that they mean business. About a month from now we are going to learn about the changes to contract and conditions. These are intended to attract and retain good staff so that we can man the 54 aircraft ordered recently.
Serious stuff, right?
Erik
