Lawrie,
Yes I know of pilots that would come home tomorrow for the right price.
If you know that, then that should be the line you run, your media should have been ALL about that, and that alone.
- There is no shortage.
- There are plenty of Aussies who want the jobs.
- The present package is obviously below industry standards.
- The Visas are being used to circumvent this problem.
In other words: Jetstar is employeeing foreigners to keep wages low whilst plenty of Aussies are now shut out.
They are the lines you should be running with, not the apologist Bulls%#t that is evident in your media and posts here.
I remain entirely suspicious that you are in bed with them on this one, your defence of it is a give away.
