Thanks for the info Blogsey.
Griffin, one of the looming problems is there is not enough sausage meat in the system to make more QFIs let alone CFS QFIs to train them, or at the very least there is no fat (I mean you have to fill those ground jobs!)
As someone who may have got this offer (I have a few of those initials) it is very disappointing that it it took so long (How long have the airlines been expanding for? CX > 12 Months, Jetstar > 12 months, Qantas 12 Months, Virgin 8 months).
It may (along with some posting guidance) been enough to stay. At least some recognition that our skills are/were valued nearer to market rates.
Instead anyone outside ROSO that was going has probably gone (the same old song isn't it) and good luck to those who
were staying anyway, enjoy, strangely enough I miss it already!!
Positive rate, gear up , autopilot on, coffee please.....
