I know we are all desperate to get a pay rise.
Bills, Mortgages, Rent, Commuting Expenses all add up, and that's before you even have a chance to enjoy your life.
It's all well and good us getting 7 free flights per year, but I don't know anyone who can afford to go on a holiday 7 times a year, let alon afford to pay the taxes.
But... We all have to be patient. Getting VAA to change their management practices is going to be a long and slow process.
Rather than promoting unofficial strike action, we should be promoting union membership. I have flown with several crew both CC and SCC who are not even members, some who have been around for over two years!!!
I want to see more text messages promoting union membership!!!
