Ah yes where's wally? That was fun. and yes we used to say he was qantas plant to shut Ansett down.
In that, the job was well done.
It matters not from where these type spring from its the mindset that matters.
Ansett had some very fine people just very poor owners over the years who strip mined the place of working capital. qantas also has excellent people but I can see that from working for both companies qantas is still so entrenched in nepotism and empires its scary.
The way engineering is run is disgracefuly fragmented in its daily routines, paperwork, work pratices ....etc.And its not just the senior managers' fault. .Entrenched interests in lower areas of supervision and work practices ride roughshod over all efforts from above or below.The cull must go on and much further.
