just to please the greedy corporates....whoops, sorry I meant the 'institutional investors'.
They're also the people who own BA. The people on who's behalf WW runs the company. Sorry, but that's the way the world works.
As for being "greedy corporates", you're talking about companies who manage other peoples money. Not just filthy rich fat cats, but ordinary everyday people who might want to save a bit of money. Or who might want to build up a decent pension fund. That's why institutional investors want to invest in viable businesses with good prospects. Would you allow your savings to be managed by a company that invests them in failing businesses? Of course not. So why the bad feeling towards the institutional investors who are simply doing their job of getting the best possible return on their investments?
You've got to start seeing BA not just as an employer, but as a business operating in a competitive and tough market. Do you not see that your own interests are inextricably bound to those of the business?
