Chill out guys. I am sure this is all part of the plan.
Remember at the start of this week we did not even know we were having a stop work meeting. Now the meeting that we did not know about has been postponed..I say, lets be calm and watch the game get played.
I am sure this is part of a tactic. e.g. If you were scab and had to fly in from another country, being this is now Thursday they would have had to be here by now ready to work Friday... How many who etc... Lets wait and see.
ACTU president Sharan Burrow has asked the union to call off its four-hour stop-work meeting planned for tomorrow afternoon, which would have caused Qantas to cancel a number of domestic flights.
She said the engineers would be willing to accept a rise somewhere in between the 5 per cent they demanded and the 3 per cent Qantas had continued to offer over the previous 18 months of failed wage negotiations.
Message for Sharan Burrow.
5% is not a bargaining point. It is the point. To stick your beak in now after 18 months at the 11th hour so you can grab some headlines is appalling at best
Go climb back under the rock you came from.
