Everyone knows the QF flight and legacy cabin crews enjoy massive conditions that are only matched in scale by their ego's and arrogance.
You speak of me and many of my colleagues with such passion but I don't believe we've met.
It may surprise you to know that I agree there are indeed some in the organisation, as in all areas of human existence, that are exactly as you describe. The other 95% are just normal blokes/blokettes who have been lucky enough to have been employed by a once great company for which they have a great loyalty despite its current problems.
You might also be surprised to hear what many would give up to ensure it returns even part of the way to its former quality.....but only if its led by someone with a vision of a great airline in their sights, not an ordinary organisation that rewards a few with gold for achieving short term goals of little substance.
