I know a lot of people in many different areas, Engineering, Ramp and Customer Service. Out of all these people I've only heard about and know of a hand full that have been made or given a redundancy. I also know of the same number of people who have been upgraded in their payscale, SP1 to SP2.
I'm sceptical about the 1750 figure. I know people will lose their jobs, but going of what I've seen and heard, I don't know where the 1750 are coming from.
