Well well, interesting developments on the horizon. Todays GDN made for some interesting reading. Bored (spelling correct) member Mr Kooheji claims NONE will be sacked!!! Correct me if I'm wrong but wasnt that the same Mr Kooheji who first announced 25% reduction in the workforce namely 1500 EXPAT CREW to be sacked in the GDN?????
Likewise the GF trade union (why the hell they call themselves a union I dont know) immediately expressed their support to the redundancy plans "since no bahrainis would be sacked".
Have you lads read the story about the boy who cried wolf? Well this is developing into a very similar story. This management have lost every ounce of credibility they ever had with these acts of desperation. Frankly they are totally lost and I suspect they havent the foggiest of whats going on. CRISIS MANAGEMENT in all it's glory. We go from 1500 sackings to the slap across the face when all three majors in the region run and book hundreds to interview. Then realizing they could potentially be faced with not enough staff to operate aircraft they
promise gold plated "packages". Next reaction is :
As we are all aware that our airline has been in the news and the recent media coverage has indicated that there will be significant reduction at Gulf Air staff, especially in the cabin and cockpit crew, in the coming month.
This is not correct. The process of cabin and cockpit crew staff reduction will take 10 to 12 months
Next day the GDN comes out with some interesting numbers of potential imminent resignations and finally the sh!t hits the fan in the pink palace, calls are made announcments are required...............
Mr Kooheji GF board member states categorically NO REDUNDANCIES
WHO THE HECK DO YOU PEOPLE THINK YOU'RE FOOLING?
Do you honestly think you can play around with peoples lives like that and they will just sit around and take it?
