Does not surprise me that the company would do such a thing, a very similar thing happened with pilots with Australian Airlines in CNS.
Pilot slots were being handed out about a month or two before Qantas closed down the base. These poor buggers sold their homes, wives left their jobs to take up this posting just to be told shortly after... too bad, its closing.
I am so sorry to hear that Qantas has dished out some more innocent casualties.
My heart goes out to you.
Best of luck to you all and your families
