Personally, I enjoy reading the views of others, whether from the extreme left, or far right. As such, when I read the postings from Curtain Rod, I find many of his posts are quite salient, and if we are honest with ourselves, point out how ineffective our efforts to date have been.
We should all by now know the company will not willingly pay us 1cent more than it has to. While seats are getting filled, (both up front by G day workers and by pax in the cabin) and the schedule is not delayed by other than small amounts, then as far as the company is concerned, they believe they've paid us too much.
When pax stop booking flights, when cockpit seats don't get filled, and when aircraft are significantly delayed or cancelled, then and only then, will you have their attention.
As for how that is achieved, well maybe if the mediator can only come out with "play nice kiddies", because you'll note he is not an Arbitrator, then belatedly, perhaps play nice should be thrown out of the playpen.
Curtain Rod often just sows the seeds of thought.
But like a newspaper, if you don't like the article, don't read it.
