QAN annual report

Having just leafed through the above document, something (or the lack of something) struck me with respect to the glossy photos...
Only one photo of a staff member - and that was a strange half shadow type attempt.
For a company championing "engagement" and then essentially not showing any of its happy, smiling staff members in a publication that goes around the world is, in the least, surprising.
Previous annual reports have been full of photos of staff members. It is a conscious decision to not include photos of this type in the current report. I wonder why? The majority of other large publically listed companies' annual reports are full of shots of their staff, smiling whilst at their workplace.
Maybe they had trouble finding a smiling one?

It may be because the staff would have to work back to make up for the time they would have taken off to pose for photo's or Darth would have wanted them to come in on their day off for the pics

Yep stiffwing... have given it a look also and it's not a good read
Same old "defered shares/wage freeze/hard times" etc etc while;
*top management get massive share and pay/bonus increases;
*the fuel surcharge still creeps up (with decreasing fuel price!);
*regional fares to drought ravaged regional towns remain very expensive...
...AND Jimmy Bow-Tie is invited back, now on the board...
