Our only trouble is Whoops that we ourselves are selfish and self serving when it comes to being generous to our junior colleagues. When I look at your circumstances, I see the generation that raked me over for £40k in my first years in the company just to keep the box payment system.
We have a history of accepting large cuts in our terms and conditions, just so long as you don't touch mine old boy. Only now that Tarquin and Ophelia are joining the company at the bottom after Papa paid for their licence, are these Sen <500 people beginning to see how much damage has already been done.
Well the winds of change blew through BALPA in the summer, and the team we have now is VERY focussed on looking after the very majority of the rest of us who are looking into the abyss.
If the vote is to strike, then strike it is. All the way. TO THE END. If you feel that you can't support your colleagues, then it it would seem that it wouldn't be the first time.
