Time to stand up n be counted again !

The PIA is over and you guys had a win, and it was great to see the ALAEA and LAMEs working together for a just cause.
I am not saying you go down that path again, and you probably can't anyway.
My point is why can't a few of the 'old heads' ie very Snr LAMEs and the ALAEA get together and have a meeting with GH. He has been doing customer contracts for years, he knows what they are worth.
He may be the boss now, but most will remember him as a snot nosed snork !
He has made it to the top, but how long will he stay there? If he can't make this dis-functional Line Maint operation work he will be gone ! ! !
Apply some pressure, you must still have lots of multi-licensed LAMEs who can do customer work. Maybe bring back the old pier 'C' concept (now I am showing my age).
A properly structured and managed customer group will make money !
Give GH a dig and see if he is willing to listen and make things right !
If not, see him off like MH ! GH has to eat and live like the rest of us, he needs his job. His choice, work together for the betterment of us all, or work against us and his life at QF could be very hard, and short lived !
