So SRB has finally lost the plot publically. If the CC union couldn't organise a meaningful direction for its members, then old Dickie has surely done that for them now. Unfortunately he has always been a fair weather boss. Throw a party, round up a crew in the Caribbean to play with, he will always be there. Unfortunately when things are tough its not quite as much fun for him anymore. I'll never forget his disappearing act when redundancies were being made after 9/11. Good luck to the crew at VS!
BTW his line that you get perks at his smaller friendlier company disappeared in the late 90's when he allowed his company to get as bloated as BA with acquisitions such as the Office. We all just became numbers!
