Jibba jabba: What you hear is correct & as i said in the old thread, seems the operating policy is starting to reverse, it was; (safety, pax comfort, schedule, economy) now it appears to be(safety, pax comfort, economy, schedule), all of managements doing. What will the order be next? Rosters are now turning to crap because of how many reserves people are getting, up to 3/4 of their roster on reserve, this then leaves sectors uncrewed so they can have more flexibility to shift people around interstate. Crewing are resorting to underhanded tactics calling people outside of work-reserve periods in the persons own time to give them duties for the coming days & telling people they must accept the duty because they were contacted even though it is out of scope of the eba, this is to try & limit the delays & get the flights crewed due to so many reserve days being rostered. Surely for the past three or so years they should have seen the lack of qualified people for upgrades & moved to top up this resource in between cadet courses. This matter has been an offence of strict liability from management & shareholders should be asking questions to the board about this. It is going downhill fast in my opinion & will only get worse unfortunately, morale in the ranks is taking a big hit also. I think its time to start looking elsewhere. It really is all take & no give from the company!!! They have made the bed they can now lay in it.
