Qantas pilots are out of order with their proposed PA announcements. They are paid to fly the aeroplane, not spruik a particular industrial cause. I wonder how they'd react if the Company directed them to make an announcement deploring actions by for example the ALAEA because the Last Post was played at the end of their recent very childish one-minute stop work meeting?
Why of why aggravate what customer base you have left? If you have a fight with the Company, have it by all means but don't involve the customer. Pretty simple really but for industrial pygmies, nothing is too simple.
Note to all: I expect to be pilloried by the usual suspects as a result of this post so please don't waste your energy and bandwidth doing so.
