An MOU has been signed. That does not indicate that the deal has been done, but it's a step along the road to a sale.
Nothing is guaranteed until the money is in the bank.
However, I am again unsurprised and pretty disgusted that we at bmi have found this out via the media, rather than by being kept even remotely informed and treated like adults. But hey, it's one of the main reasons that bmi is in this situation in the first place, so why change the management habit of a lifetime...
When we found this out today. The final sense of caring that most people have been desperately trying to hold onto whilst this debacle has gone on, evaporated in an instant.
I've never seen such a fed up bunch of people, who just a few weeks ago were passionate about
their company and proud to wear the uniform despite what had been going on.
Well done. Achieving that sort of turnaround in staff morale is really quite an impressive feat...
Good luck everyone at the coal face. I've been proud to work with you all at bmi and I can comfortably say that it isn't the staff who let the company down. However, they're the ones who'll be having another happy christmas with if not actual P45's in their hands, then threat of them will be looming as I can't imagine IAG/BA will want to take the company on as a whole.
I shall refrain from posting my real opinion of how things have been handled by our lords and masters as it would break the rules of this site in regards to swearing.
Time to do my best Yosser Hughes impression.
Gizza a job. I can do that...
