everyonefedup,
Whilst I agree with some of the sentiment, the fact is that the Civil Air negotiators have done a fantastic job in an implacably hostile industrial climate. A deal last year would only have happened if one of the parties had caved in. The perseverance of Civil Air is written in the final document. Airservices only had to stall to be winning in delayed salary increases.
Such is the legacy of Workchoices and it hasn't changed enough by a long way.
The next question is when are Airservices going to address the operational viability of the system? The "Learning Academy" simply isn't cutting even to CASA's auditing against Airservices own standards and we're still short of people before we even start looking at ambitious think tank stuff.
