the Cadets don't get paid peanuts they send management Cashews!
True!

The fixed rosters will not be given up without a monumental fight......
You mean just like the 'no local contracts fight' was fought?

By testing the water this summer, management have firmly inserted the thin end of the wedge up everyone's rectum and probably concluded that x% of people are stupid and desperate enough to sell out their colleagues and put up with a random roster in return for a few extra bananas.

Similar to the outmaneuvering of BALPA by offering local contracts to the new MAD base a few years ago, could it perhaps be that in the foreseeable future bases will be crewed with a 'take it or leave it' random roster contract?

There are always enough spineless people desperate enough to stick a knife in their colleagues back in return for a quick(er) upgrade or if you are a cadet with enough cashews to pay for it: a real 'McJob' with a genuine 'career' airline!
