Unfortunately Ken,you probably wouldn't understand it. Operational staff
know the time an aircraft
actually takes to turn around,which often differs from what's on the schedule that a beancounter 'estimates' it can be done by.
As (supposedly) a manager you should know that so called poor 'execution' can only be the result of poor 'leadership' from management.
Operational staff know much more about such things than managers who have no operational experience ie current Qantas management.
Qantas would be in a much better place if it listened to operational staff about such things. Kudos to those with the financial know-how,but they cannot apply it to operational situations,as they do not know the operational requirements and unexpected hurdles we have to meet to get a jet out on time.
I will save the personal thoughts I have for you,as you are surely amongst those that will be culled,when the management changes again.
We will still be here
