Jet II I'm just back from five days work and I can tell you I've met plenty of people who don't support the strike. They include my colleagues on the flight deck, lots of cabin crew, a couple of dispatchers, an engineer and most of the staff in Ops trying to pick up the pieces of the weekends chaos. The only person I met in that time who voiced strong support was someone who used to work check-in in T1, and even she couldn't give me a half-decent justification for an illegal strike.
Wrong again - the timing was precisely of the managements making, they decided to introduce this system at this particular time against the wishes of the staff.
The management decided to introduce the system on Tuesday, the staff walk out the previous Friday disrupting weekend travel plans???? Why not walk out at noon on Tuesday, or Monday morning? This actions timing was
entirely the doing of the strikers.
