Yes Tory,

Would you not be interested for starters in inheriting all or part of our FDA / ODM / SESMA agrement? Works very well and is put together from the best of the agreements in the industry with our managments blesing and sponsorship. I am told that your system is not quite so well developed. There is no reason why your CC wouldn't have developed many of these policies themselves given time, but we might just have had a head start and the ability to use BA as a benchmark. Not always the best company to take a lead from , but at least we were able to pick and choose.

What about all the other policies and procedures? Do you have anything written down? If not, What do you want to do, tear all ours up and start all over again because they are BAcon and all the hard work that went into developing them has to be destroyed at all cost?

I saw some kind of Flybe policy to do with bonuses and bribes for not going sick. One day not flying with a head cold and you lose the lot. What's that all about. Does it apply to pilots too? If so, who signed up to that? We managmed to kick all that nonsense into touch when we proved that pilots had the best sickness record in the company. Guess which department was the worst? ...........................................HR
