Keep in mind that Virgin is not the 'budget' airline it was last time the EBA was negotiated.
Every day they introduce a new 'initiative'.
Think of all the extra work you personally have to do in relation to Live2Air, Premium Economy, and Velocity golds, and the removal of L2X.
Those few moments of peace you had in the past have been stolen, and replaced with time spent dealing with extra complaints and problem televisions, or providing extra service and attention to the folk the airline is relying on to help it ride the economic storm (golds and premium).
You ARE working harder, you ARE working more, and all this is within the constraints of the current EBA.
