Mate,I've actually been present when an A-scale BTC was bitching that he couldn't afford to retire at 55.
Hey,I've got a great idea,abolish the A-scale starting now and the savings can be used to enhance a new single salary scale.
As an aside,I was in conversation recently with that most interesting of species,the "A-scale wife". For some reason the conversation turned and she said to me "...if you hadn't joined there would be no B-scale". Quite.
Did she form that opinion herself? More likely she was quoting someone else.I wonder who that might be?
