Buster.
Sorry but I think history will show that ANZ bought a poisoned chalice. if you'll excuse the mixed metaphor. AN was a s weak as water before NZ's outright purchase. With three or four domestic operators - Qantas, Ansett, Impulse and Virgin Blue - in a very small but competitive market, it was odds on the the weaker two would fall, This is what happened. The NZ shareholders are the ones to be asking the really hard uestions, as an employee you are just the hired help with few if any rights.
I know it's tough but it is really time to move on. How many employees of other Oz companies that have gone bust have had Govt support to protect their entitlements. Redundancy pay is paid when a company no longer needs you. When there is no company, why should anyone get redundancy? Don't be like the mob fom 1989. It's over. Finis. Sorry.
