Calm down fellas's, as a 89er I know only to well what it is like to be pissed on from a great height, but you have it far better than us, with all of the company joining the cause. In fact you blokes are well and truly in the LH seat on this one. We all know this is as much as about saving the company from the grubs that run it, as it is about wages and conditions. We all know that if you don't do something, you are deadset going to end up on JQ wages conditions and contracts which has been the ultimate aim all along. The public, judging by the blogs yesterday, are not so sure this is simply a disgruntled workers dispute, and are having a long hard look at management, with the problems of the 747/400 and the A380 still fresh in their minds, they are not all that sure that the employees don't have a case, nor do they want another Ansett. Unite, stay united, they cannot bring in the military on this one, far to big, yes you will have your scabs, but not enough to run the company. Us 89ers are cheering you on.
