"Or will it be another case of the ATCOs digging deep to sort the rest of the company out again?"
WTF are you on about? I must have missed this little gem somewhere in the dim and distant past. looking at the historic (union) record, the only hole the ATCOs have ever dug is one for the rest of the workforce to fall into. The fact that the majority of ATCOs consider themselves to be a cut above the rest in all fields is the primary cause of the situation we now find ourselves in as a Company workforce!
In your eyes, the rest of us are responsible for dragging you all down. In our eyes, the perpetual intransigence of the ATCOs to honestly recognise the input and value of the support staff (and especially the Ops ATSAs) and back them up accordingly, is what the real state of affairs is.
While this situation exists, all of us have no chance of working and negotiating together effectively. Go your own way if you must - we won't be able to stop you, but we certainly won't be any worse off than we are at the moment.
