hey guys you don't expect any of our mismanagement to greet us do you!
Al thought our expectations from our mismanagement are low, its time to lower them even further then we will never be disappointed.
Anyway why in the farrk would you want that ^%$^%$ to say hello.
He hates all crew both tech and cabin with an absolute passion.
Its something for us to be proud of.
There will be a day when he will depart QF, Do you think he will have the balls to travel with the remnants of what was QF?

Expect an announcement this Monday that will cause enormous pain for a lot of QF employees.

The drive to put all staff (not management) on JQ T&C's is about to start in earnest.

No need to quote the FAM lambsie, it was unintentional (in principle) after a bloody long day. I'm aware of the rules, even the asinine ones. Pity you have to be so constantly on your guard these days though.

Speaking of the drive to put all QF employees on JQ conditions, that's a foregone conclusion. Blind Freddy can see why JQ get the first batch of 787s. I have a gut feeling though for a number of reasons, that much of this posturing - or more to the point, the way the company is going about it - might come back to bite someone. Time will tell.

A little-publicised fact.....
When the A380 was being number-crunched several years ago by the Rat, the amount allowed in the pilot pay budget was for B744 PLUS 18%, and with existing overtime rules! Can anyone explain why, with such obscene QF Executive Bonuses and company-wide contempt for Management, we should accept an insulting offer of 10% with no overtime? AIPA - don't you DARE even THINK about doing that !

The company will pay a fair rate for the 380 because:

a. The baby boomer flight ops managers have always looked after no1. Why would that change?

b. Cause this aint a lcc plane and the rat won't afford guys getting endorsed and leaving.

Its not super long haul so the company will pay O/T and they'll pay a premium on the 744 rate too.

Mind you, I am sure the J* boys are clamouring to get an angle on this ship....
