It is not our fault that the company is losing money
..Every other employee group in BA could make the same claim. By last Summer most/every other group in the Company had entered into meaningful negotiations with BA and had reached a mutual agreement, even if it meant those employees had to work harder and/or be paid less. I don't like my paycut but I accept there has been, and continues to be, a Worldwide economic downturn.
Because neither BA or BASSA were getting anywhere. Everything had come to a halt.
How much negotiating time do you think the BASSA Reps should have been given?
