Aqua, Beat up on the 20% pay rise, i got that the first time.
But the rest of the thread, complaints etc etc, appears a tad baseless don't you think ?.
Brasilian Bird, so why attack this operator, it would appear the problem in this case is the actual "Award" being non reflective of the current climate.
It has been stated here by a number of you guys/gals that said operator does not meet the award, but truth be told it would appear they ( and many other operators ) are infact paying above the award.
If the award is not "up to date" ( is not inline with CPI ), is an issue that needs to be taken up with Industrial Relations.
Will certainly not be solved here by bitching and moaning.
If you think defamation ( be it Slander { spoken word } or Libel { written} ) is hard to prove, perhaps you missed the TACAN400/Dick Smith event recently.
