Oh, Standard. You could not possibly be more wrong.
After many years in Europe, I was only offered the NZ position. I was not offered, nor did I get DEC. I thought NZ would be good for my family - and other than dealing with earthquakes and a damaged house it is.
There has been many, many broken promises made by senior management, hence the unprecedented anger from all J* NZ.
I started under a huge degree of ignorance of the EBA / contracts / J* exploitation of labour setup. I am guilty of being ignorant, naive, whatever you want to call it. Guilty of undercutting mates never !!!!! Some older Impulse guys will remember me being taken off a ground school when I queried being upgraded over others more senior. I lost my job over sticking up for mates, standing up for seniority and opposing pilot providing company contracts. Before slipping, away I had the last laugh in court. I stand up against injustice, and stand up for my mates.
You could not be more wrong Mr Standard.
