Sorry, pushed submit before I was ready. One more quote I like:
Plenty of QF people would rather see out the last 5 or so years of their career with a real airline rather than fly to Sin, Lhr and Lax.
QF now reminds me of my five year old when he uses my uniform as a dress up- he looks like a pilot, sort of but not quite. QF now looks like a real international airline, sort of but not quite.
