I can fully respect the fact that there must be all manner of talented and dedicated people working in the ranks of Alitalia. I further accept that people's livelihoods are at stake and as a consequence that of their families.
However the health of the company here is the point of discussion and not directly an attack on the staff but nevertheless from time to time the company's finacial standing is linked to staff utilisation and performance. What's mentioned is nothing different from other corporate analysts expressing views on Alitalia's future besides it's better to have a future than none at all. If Alitalia looked around themselves at where the industry is going they might not have found themselves in this position.
A company whether private or publically owned is subject to scrutiny from all aspects whether that be institutions, employees or good old customers.
