Ken, maybe you wouldn't be pilloried if you displayed a grasp of the facts.

As stated by ejectx3, we were instructed by Qantas management via a class 2 intam at flight planning to make PAs during the engineering dispute blaming the engineers for departure delays, even when it wasn't actually the engineers' fault!

No-one I know of made it. It was treated with the contempt it deserved.

Jethro - also a grasp of the facts would be helpful to you too. The engineers quite clearly stated that the 1 minute stoppage is to satisfy the FWA legal requirement to keep their PIA valid without having to go to another vote or apply for an extension.

C'mon management stooges. Surely working your way up to the dizzying heights of management requires the ability to do robust factual research before opening your mouth, doesn't it? Oh, wait a minute......just realised what I said!
