Speedy,
I applauded your post. The very silence of Lawrie Cox after your post makes me very comfortable with the fact that I resigned from the AFAP even after my email of concern to the AFAP to work closer with AIPA.
It was not a hollow threat. Nothing happened, so I resigned from the AFAP and the apparent lack of action on this thread strengthens my resolve. I am now a member of AIPA.
I will see how it goes from here, at this rate I will probably end up off-shore for more money, just like nearly all of my mates..
But thats cool, all the baby boomers will retire when the conditions reach rock bottom and 'hot potatoe' the s;;t sandwich to 'someone else'..
NOT REALLY THEIR PROBLEM IS IT, so why do we really think they are motivated to fix it?
