Whilst we have again knocked the offer back the majority of the union delegation, mainly band 4/5 atcos, allegedly found the offer on the table quite appealing even with the tasks attached.
Maybe I was asleep at conference, but that's not what I remember seeing and hearing. The Area reps, almost to a man/woman, found it hard to believe that part of the pay offer and indicated that they would not be swayed by it at the expense of their colleagues in NSL, for which we are grateful.
As an aside, we had a Met equipment failure last night and it was a PITA even without any traffic. Christ only knows what we'd have done if that happened during the day.
