Forstaff have changed their name, can't remeber what it is but noticed it when looking on their website the other day.
would not surprise me one bit if there was move to resume work in H245 with contract labor.
Anyone heard of the fate of (now ex) SYD HM managers..?? now that they have done the dirty work they will probably be shafted next.

Not so sure Shaman, the company seems to have a limitless supply of positions in which to snooker away management types.

hmmmm.. you are probably right about the snooker tactic redstone... i did hear at the last '100 managers meeting' about 150 turned up so we will see.. a few of them I would not let run an op shop..
also has anyone heard if the 'additional 1000 staff to go' had any effect on Engineering yet..??

The only good news that I have heard is that the manager of GSE sydney got some sort of marching orders on Friday, so sad that I missed it.
Good luck to all the staff that don't have to work under that snake anymore.
Finally the "Penny" has been dropped.
The snr production manager has bee offered a job that he's not happy with so he has left allo the work of finding people positions to the production manager and he is mightily happy with him for doing that (not), however having said that the pm is doing the best he can and should be applauded.

Have heard the same rumour from a source outside QF. Presumably Forestaff would also have to scrounge up support shop staff as well, and possibly ppd staff. Is there enough of the farm left to resurrect H245?

Apparently QF Management can't bear the thought of leaving H245 empty when they can lease it out to a third party and pay them to maintain their A/C. Can only assume Base Maint SYD will be next on the chopping block.
If they're looking for volunteers .. to quote Mr Humphreys from Are you being served "I'm Free".

This is one thing management seem to be very good at. What they pay for tooling would make Ned Kelly proud

Could be the big ultimatum. Have heard on the grape vine that the guys languishing without a job offer yet do so at His Majesty Keiths pleasure with a view to desperation luring them into BNE Heavy or Avalon.

I too thought that they were rather short of LAME's down at Avalon until I heard of a bloke, with EI&R on the 737 classic and NG, who was knocked back from a 12 month contract job on the freighter conversions due to being "not appropriately qualified".
Can't imagine too many blokes like that coming in off the street to offer their services to forshaft. Obviously, despite the complete shambles that has been their efforts with 737's to date, they've got it all covered down there in happy Avalon.
