Mr Joyce's letter:
Qantas has been profitable every year since privatisation, including in each year of my time as CEO, and including at the height of the global financial crisis when airlines around the world were closing their doors, as well as winning many awards for product and service.
.........if accepted their claims would place an unsustainable cost burden on the airline
Mr. Joyce boasts of the long term profitability of the airline, yet in another place states that even maintaining the purchasing power of Pilots and Engineers wages is too much for this airline to bear???????????
In other words, the entire future profitability of Australias National carrier, and the billions of dollars of shareholders funds involved, hangs on NOT giving Australian employees some element of job security and a maintaining the purchasing power of their wages????
This is cognitive dissonance at its worst.
I can just see what must have been said at Board level some years ago "OK Geoff we will approve purchase of 20 A380's because your strategy of destroying the Australian labor force is a winner."
These fukcwits are fighting the last war. Who the Fukc buys 20 A 380's yet calls the airline that will fly them a "legacy airline? What is going on here???????"
