1. yes the DMM's in BNE were asked to stay on the 12 hr roster if the staff were made to do 8 hr rosters. 3 of the 6 said yes. 2 were perth scabs the other an up and coming wolfman
2. the 12 hr roster was negotiated and introduced as both a flexibility arrangement for the company with increased productivity ( 2 hr handover times in 24 hrs rather than 3 etc. ) and a lifestyle arrangement for the LAME's both groups had a win.
3. the current ALAEA executive have finally made decisions for the greater good of the LAME workforce, not for the company so yes some directions are not as good as others but they have the guts to make a decision
4. The scabs going to perth know what they are doing. They are grown intelligent men, what has made them resort to letting down there mates in time of need. This is not the Australian way. The company will **** all over them just like they do to everyone, they will learn.
5. And finally with QF showing that with the APA takeover they could pay a 4.5 BILLION special divedend to the bid partners shows QF are doing better than they have let on. Has GD been lying to staff and shareholders for years. This shows they have enough money to re invest into the future of QF staff like there new ads show. Its time to put your money where your mouth is
