Hey Kernow

Yes - I do agree, and I am also aware of the 900hrs+ issue etc. The only concern I have is the Unions.....

Let me explain - the devil is in the wording; are we talking positions or people here. If we are talking positions then it will mainly affect those temporary summer check-in/loaders staff.

However if we are talking about 100 staff currently employed then the Unions will take a s stanpoint of rather than running new entrants courses and making people redundant offer those courses to the groundstaff first. You know the drill.......

In any event - some ground handler outthere is about to sign a very lucrative contract for next summer!

Four weeks today Kernow! Not long now!
