Griffo,
Thanks for your support on this and other threads.
We don't have to work in Oz, there are quite a few people with O/S offers being considered, and others who are tarting up the CVs. Most will stay for lifestyle/family reasons.But those that leave will finally break the already creaking system.
Unless they put our pictures up at the airports and march us at gunpoint to the consoles, alot more people will leave.
It is assumed as though we don't have a choice but to work in Oz. From being in the system previously , you know the pride we have in the job. None of us want to hurt the public. I hope they won't be too upset when a critical mass of controllers leave and a bad situation gets worse.
This is not a threat, we have had enough, if it doesn't improve we are left with no choice but to look elsewhere. It is an absolutely toxic environment to work in, and this can be placed squarely at the feet of the CEO and his Spin Doctors.
