Mouse78,
I'm a bit like you... I also think about the implications of us taking industrial action! I've heard JG say that it'd take about 2-3 days to train a FA in the basic functions of cabin crew (ie EP's, Av Med and Regs -that's it!). No one is irreplaceable. And I'm pretty sure that our Company would do what it needs to in order to ensure the airline continues to run.
It's interesting re. comments about 'being united'. I've also had the same thing said to me in SYD... the trouble is that the majority of us are selfish at heart and really, wouldn't act in the collective interest; it would purely be about self interest.
Mmmmmmm interesting times really! God I wish I had that backpay. I got my creditcard bill in yesterday and I'm freaking out! Here's hoping to $1000 worth of Woring RDO / Drafting money over February!
