Skystar 320, I think you will find it is the gross hypocrisy that most people resent GD for.
While calling for restraint from everyone else in QF he and his inner circle have helped themselves to obscene pay rises and bonuses.
Meanwhile the people at the coal face have been trying to do their best with fewer and fewer resources at their disposal. The chickens are now well and truly coming home to roost. You can cut fat, but once the muscle and bone are cut you have HUGE problems. That over cutting has been happening for many years now in the name of "cost cutting". What it has really been is "standard cutting".
Let's hope the new CEO realizes the value of his staff and treats them like assets and not liabilities like someone else did.
If AJ does he will be richly rewarded and QF may once again prosper in more ways than just the bottom line. Look after your staff who look after your customers who look after your profits. Is that so hard to grasp for the modern day wizz?
Take a leaf from Rob Fyfe's book at Air New Zealand. Very impressive man!
