Profit eh,
Who would have thought it!
It must be getting near to bonus time.
The savings must have come from not having to pay the wages of the staff
who have already left or maybe it's the money they saved not paying overtime
( well a few 380 hero,s and an AMU rep aside ).
A pilot the other day had a bit of a laugh and pointed out that QANTAS are dropping routes faster than the public are dropping them!!!!!
Take 5 is correct , just say NO and lung it out as long as possible.
Don't let them retrench you. I heard it worked for some of the ex SYD heavy guys. They just kept coming to work and I believe they are still with us.

On that note let's take 5 and reflect on some of our managements triumphs
A380
Lean sigma
No money in freight
Old technology 777's
Maintnex
Giving away contracts
Qantas #13 on safest airline list.
Closing heavy
Selling off our spares
Feel free to add to the list, I could use a laugh


It's amazing with the benefit of hindsight how often the people
who "don't understand the business" are correct.
