Rod, I hear you.
But as long as nobody walks away from this job, as long as recruitment gets thousands of application each year, and as long as we do not find effective industrial tools to really cause some damage to the operation, this is just pointless.
I also think we need to choose our battles. Does it really make sense to fight three men crew when ALL our competitors are operating this way? Safety as an argument for acars roster change? Really? Fighting an inevitable base closure caused by a legislation shift clearly out of the hands of the company? What was the offer on the table for HKPA, like plus 20 or 30 %, and that is not enough??
I say: let's get real and move on. Concentrate on what can be achieved and not what we dream of to have in a fantasy world. I am so sick of the the constant complaining on the flight deck,and then the same guys stay on until 65 and as soon as an outsider critisizes cx in the bar they are all over him. What a joke.
Anna is not talking to us because she doesn't take us seriously any more, that's why.
