I was back in today after a few days off and ended up sat chatting in the crew room about the paydeal (as you can imagine) and mention was made, during this weeks visits to the base by management, of a base captain saying that if they found any individual that had voted 'no' they would slap them. Now whilst they might not actually slap them I thought it spoke volumes of their attitude toward their base crews, but perhaps it was silly of me to actually think that instead of this repsonse they might actually want to find out why their crews felt that a no vote was required?
