Fair Work will say; "We'll, that is insane! How do you think you should let pilots go.
Feelin' lucky, Al?
Fair Work are much more likely to say 'this process was part of your log of claims, remember? The one that smacked down on to our doormat that we had to arbitrate. Get your own house in order. Suck it up'.
Don't expect it next week either. The wallah I spoke of refused to even give an indication of how many captains had put in an EOI.
You're probably right about that expectation Keg. I was puzzled that at least two of our hard working Fleet Captains have updated their blogs over the weekend [thanks RM and GS] without mentioning the critical number. But now I've figured out that the VR/RIN/CR process is being driven by Other People, and their consultants, who perhaps do not have their focus in quite the same place as Flt Ops. I'm sure that Flt Ops would very much like to get that info out there, but are being constrained by Other People.
