To those who call all QF Ppruners "whingers"
As you can see from the positive comments in this thread, Qantas staff posting on this website are not just whingers, complaining for the sake of complaining. Maybe it's possible that we actually had justifiable reasons to complain before. We have known for a long time that Qantas was not being run well, despite what that arrogant former management team told the public. In so many departments, rather than being assisted to do our jobs, we were hindered.
Even with the gloomy prospect of 1750 job losses, I feel more positive about working for Qantas today than I have in over 6 years. Dixon created a terrible, negative, fearful culture. By 2008, very few Qantas staff could say they were proud to work for this once great airline. Maybe things will change now. Time will tell...
