Good riddance Gallerina!

Im happy to say that I have spoken with my feet and I am now working for a airline that cant do ENOUGH for me. Im no longer running around in a five dollar uniform that came from some sweat shop in china, doing trim sheets, taking um's and arguing about why we were 2mins late!
Gallerina, it's good to see you,ve gone, REX is a better place without pilots with attitudes like yours.
Good luck in your new airline and I'm sure it wont be long before we see you on this forum complaining about the way you are treated by them!

TWU: Rex Guys & Gals the Twu might be the answer to the problem

Dear fellow aviation professionals
we gave the afap away at Xr a long time ago and now have the Twu representating us ; what a fresh change and they take-up what we want not somebodies else's agenda.

cheers

O my old nemesis areal..... U SHOULD REALLY READ AND TAKE IN the comments and complaints that so many have put on this thread.
Your attitude to my departure is typical of what I would expect of someone in management,which you obviously are. Keep on thinking you know it all, keep on treating crew with great contempt, when you are the last one left, can you please turn off the lights!

Like I said earlier... these guys and girls need people in management to stand up for the front line. You have made some bad comments on this forum before but this is clearly the worst.... A company that says "good ridance" to crew that has given alot of time and knowledge for no thanks or payment (actually made a loss in salary) is a company that will surely fall.

Remember your greatest asset is your people... treat them as such.... BY THE WAY.... GOOD RIDANCE TO YOU AREAL... your name should be GET REAL!

I'm with you gallerina

I'm glad I got out when I did and haven't looked back.

Management in that joint have their heads that far up LKH's ass they wouldn't have a clue on whats about to hit them..

Like i've said before the horse has bolted and with up to 50 pilots leaving in the next 6 months and guys there alredy getting jack of being flogged to death, there will be SAAB's parked for sure!!

I was just looking on the REX website and see that they are starting up a Melbourne to Griffith service from July.

Who the F%#K are they going to get to crew that....

I'd say that this would require an extra 6-8 pilots based in Melb to cover the service and with 12 people leaving Melb in the next couple of months the rot should start to set in!!!, seeing they have only 20 people on file who they can recruit!!

I believe there could be a pilot shortage.....

It's not Gallerina's attitude that's under the spotlight here. He/she is only echoing the frustration felt by most crew that I've come across in the company.
Most REX employees simply felt let down by the current management team. In fact a lot of the guys/girls I have spoken with recently, admit they would probably think twice about leaving if T&C's were improved, especially those coming up for promotion.

Good managers would have had some foresight in this area some time ago.
The current mangement team are the ones displaying the attitude, not the Gallerina's!!

Good luck and look forward to hearing some positive news.

Unfortunately, while Rex is being run by ex pilots and flight attendants who have little or no management or people skills, who have only ever flown a saab and forgotten what its really like on the front line then things will never improve. Its these people that NEED to let the little tight singaporian crook know how crew should be treated!
Gallerina - My point is that the way your personal attack on the chairman of the board is not acceptable behavior from a professional like you.

I'ts all well and good to express an opinion on the company you work for but your comments have crossed the line.

It could be considdered the truth if Gallerina could produce some evidence of the singaporian actually being a crook!
Otherwise it is speculation and baseless accusations.
It may well be that "the singaporian" is not the one responsable for all of your woes?

NO - I don't think this website is about publically slandering individuals

Yes you have a good point there TK but does that make it acceptable?

I'm trying to suggest that it may be OK to publish comments on companies and how they ar run but it is not acceptable to do so on individuals.

I think that Gallerina was using the word 'crook' as a figure of speech. This thread was created, to point out that ownership/management at REX have reaped huge rewards through the 'workers' hard work and professionalism, whereas the conditions have taken a backward step.

Some contributors seem unable to recognise the fiscal injustices that REX employees are currently experiencing.
