3% pay rises expired in 2007 when the FAAA negotiated for a pay rise and back pay for 2006 and 2007. Managers have said no pay rise till the EBA gets voted in which is fine by me because to vote it yes at the moment I will be needing at least a 10% pay rise per anum for the life of the EBA to make up for the extra money I will be short every month.

We have all constructed our lives around the money we get paid. We love the job because of the working hours we have. Take both away and the incentive to stay goes, not only for me but for many others. They tell us guests love us because of the culture, take that away and then what are we.

Meanwhile waste money on managers, magazines and various other things. Like AirborneSoon said there are probably heaps of other ways to save money at VB, just ask the people who patch it all together every day.

You and I.
