Unfortunately......

Nobody Cares.
It would seem that Dixon has spent a great deal of time and energy emotionally "Disconnecting" the Australian population from Qantas.
Criticism of QF 20 years ago was non existent.As has been said Qantas was held in great affection and esteem by the population ...much like your favourite maiden aunt.By treating all and sundry with contempt Dixon has destroyed that relationship forever to the point where no one is surprised by Qantas' stupidity and arrogance.Qantas now has a particularly disingenuos attitude towards Australians and the Australian workforce.
Many young Australians had high hopes of working for Qantas as Engineers,pilots,cabin crew or groundstaff...not any more.They are either deprived of the opportunity,by employment opportunities being sent off shore,or they realize that employment with QF is toxic.
