I really don't think that many educated folk have an issue with the common theme running through many of the postings - self preservation. Of course it's a natural instinct and we all have it, just some more than others - we are all human after all!
The point I'm stressing is don't get too selfish, by putting emphasis on the word self. In order to protect your jobs, you need to play your part in a cost reduction programme. If IAG is to be a powerful global player then everyone, including myself, must look to help the company reduce the overinflated cost base.
There's lots more meat to be taken off the bone before we're well and truly competitive. We all need to think outside the box, see where we can reduce costs and the future will be so much brighter for all.
