Hmmm, the lads are showing a great deal of intelligence and forward thinking here - Germany is the hardest hit of all the European economies; Deutsche BA is losing money hand over fist; BA has been muttering for some time about either selling it off or closing it down - and these guys want to
strike if they don't get a
12% pay increase?!?
From today's atwonline.com:
The 200 pilots of British Airways' loss-making German domestic subsidiary Deutsche BA have threatened "warning strikes" for next week to buttress their demands for 12% wage increases and other benefits, which have been under negotiation since June.
