Thanks Koru
I really do appreciate your kind words and understanding. Good post. I just get extremely pissed when others who have never been in this position say "GET OVER IT". It's simply not that easy when you've had your guts torn out and your heart is still bleeding. AN people were very proud and a different breed compared with the opposition. It will no doubt take a great deal of time for these wounds to heal. I know "that's life". The sheer arrogance and quick dismissals of certain individuals (primarily QF ) does nothing to ease the pain that thousands of Australians (ex-AN) are still feeling. Their CEO had both governments feeding from his hand. His every wish was their command. Even though over 30 000 ozzie jobs were at risk it was like water of a ducks back for little Johnny and his sidekick. What a hide he had (JA) to show his face at the AN book launch. Anyway its all history now.
Time is of great essence here. The wounds will close but the deep scars will remain.
Once again Thanks Koru. I only wish that others were as compassionate as you.
