It is so good to have people on a better wicket than you. You can label them greedy, overpaid, a'holes, whatever. But there comes a day when they then become extinct, and all those lower on the pole cheer and shout with joy.
Pity help those who are the next highest on the pole. Suddenly they become the hunted. And it just may be those who cheered and shouted, and spread misinformation, to assist in the demise of those above them, who are suddenly the new kings, soon to be in the target sights.
At the same time, those unemployed tossers who you were overjoyed to see punted, suddenly have to accept any old contract in order to keep the family together and put food on the table. Making your once B grade contract look well and truly generous. And the target gets bigger.
Exactly why Australian aviation is screwed. We are our own worst enemies who would never back each other up. Glad retirement is close.
