El Perro...A Bridge is For Sale

A little slice of management speak served with some well chosen quotes and you presented a dish that is oblivious to the real problems Qantas faces.....
1.An aging fleet that requires considerable maintenance from diminished resources ie tangible equipment assets and personnel
2. A Disengaged workforce that been largely managed on the basis of fear and intimidation.
3.A poor equipment mix
4.A severely depleted aircraft spares inventory.
5.An IT system that borders on the neolithic
6.A shrinking international market.
7.A yield that has been thinly maintained by constrained capacity.
8.A marketing department that couldnt sell ice cream to the Arabs.
9.Aircraft interiors that displaying distinct signs of age.
10.Operational disarray.
The spin doctors have you conned.
The Qantas work environment is toxic.A staff member was put on a disciplinary charge because he told a detrimental Dixon joke.Another fellow derided the whizz bang Blackberry because it is not 3G.He too is on a disciplinary charge.
If after reading the above you still believe that everything at the Rat is hunky
dory then perhaps we could talk about a bridge shaped like a coat hangar that is for sale at a very competitive price.
After watching Joyce on the ABC this evening it is surely evident that he is nothing more than a dixon clone albeit without the contemptuous snarl.With a little practice in front of a mirror no doubt he will soon master that as well.
