Does anyone know what the outcome of the talks today were??
And what exactly are the chances of the company resolving this?

I support all our staff and front line crew in any stance they take. Banks in the city provide all sorts of lifestyle amenities for their traders and brokers - they realise that their assets are the people. I don't intend to ever be seen as a corporate commodity that can be reduced in value at the company's whim and nor do I think my colleagues are deserving of that treatment.

I'm highly qualified, as are many other pilots and cab crew - and can easily work anywhere else. The prevailing attitude of management shocks me every day and we all would do well to remember that we aren't to be compared with the lowest denominator in the industry; we were leaders and as such any comparison with LoCos isnt relevant.

Personally, being young as many of us are, I would rather be at the beginning of something great than at the end.. and there are many dynamic companies and options for anyone with half a brain. Which explains why our managers cling so hard to BA.
