The way I read your last post is - 'well if all airline staff are taxed on ST so that (and this is what its all about IMHO) BASSA CSD's dont have to get behind a trolley and serve passengers' its a price worth paying by the majority (10,0000's) to maintain the staus quo by the minorities (100's). How fair is that?
Well, I could go on about unions protecting minorities, but that will get me a proper flaming. However, I would be lying if I did not agree with you. But if it was me, I would not have approached it the way BASSA did. The blitzkrieg at the start did not work.
