As an engineer with the company all I can say is you had better hold out for whatever it is that you want because none of the rest of us are going to get anything for the next few years due to your actions so you had better make sure its worth it,you have already lost any support for you from engineering.On the aircraft yesterday the cabin crew were all happy that they where going to get a few days extra paid holiday by going on strike,your not the company are going to pay you nothing and fair play to them I say.
