QF22

Typically thuggery, are you threatening my life, this is why you will all loose, i will not be intimidated by the like of you, in fact you will probably be the first to cave , usuakly cowards that threaten people's lives on a closed forum are spineless little weasels.

threaten all you want, you could be the one whos job i take

it's usually cowards like yourself d!ckhead that starts threads like yourself,hiding behind a forum,why not but your name up in lights if your such a HERO.If you think you will be held in some high regard by QF management ,your also a fool.
We had some KIWI friends back in the 2001 dispute(AME's) with qf who thought thay could tough it out,not only did they leave,they headed back to NZ never to return

Lame A380

I am not threatening you're life, and am not currently employed by QF.
People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones!
You seem to get great delite from upsetting others, but you can't take it!
Remember the aviation industry on Oz is reasonably small, if this gets ugly, some, but not myself, will single you and your family out for SPECIAL treatment !
Mate if you can't take an innocent comment like that, DON'T BE A SCAB, coz it's gonna get a whole lot worse for the likes of you !
For short term gain, you will be branded a low life scab for the rest of your life, surely you must realise that.
I hope for all concerned it doesn't get to that, but it ain't lookin good !

Thats right A380LAME,this is a small industry,so after the dispute you dont think that you will be still working in aviation because who in their right mind would put there reputation at risk in the short term.

People will remember who you are and you will always be referred to as "that was the bloke who was a strikebreaker in '07",followed by "Don't trust him,because he's a ...... & a ......'(Insert what you think is appropriate here).


I for one WILL NOT DOG on my mates.It might cost me some dollars,but at least I will be able to look myself and my family in the eye.And at the end of all this,I will still be employable,might not be in aviation,but I will still have a job.

So this little black duck aint scared of bad wolves like yourself,mate!!

Oh,and one other thing!!!

If I need to,I can always go on the jamroll,because with all the tax you'll be paying,I could well end up having a tax-payer funded hoilday.

God knows I have paid some tax,might be the time to recupe what I have contributed to the Aussie economy.

That will make me sleep easier when youre doing my night shift.

QF engineers have done stints on their holidays in asia in recent years. This reduced opportunities for expats that rely on contracting work. Not only employment slots but training as well. The airlines, mainly MAS, have not had to raise the rates due to availability but also have not had to offer training as part of the package.

The training part has also affected locals.

Would it now be fair for these connie's to come to QF to help them out short term, and then move on........strike or no strike.

It looks like the company wants to play could be an expensive 2% for all concerned especially if you want to go on holidays. point is how much pain are we willing to take if these strike breakers are on qantas payrole then we have won,because we have caused them to realise that they are cronicly understaffed cant say I will be trilled to work alongside them. however if this dispute causes labour hire people to be employed in engineering then I believe it was always going to happen just happend earlier.
strap in guys might be a wild ride

Qantas stooges.......

It's been brought to my attention that QANTAS management has put up some people to register on this site and make some comments ( like LAMEA380) to stir up the members of the ALAEA.
This thread is not the only one either, so DON'T fall for it.
For confirmation, just check our the number of posts and join date.
My source also advises that there are a couple of longer term forum users also "acting for QF"
This is just another shoddy strategy used by this company in an attempt to de-stabilise LAMES.
So steady on guys......... save the hostile words for a better time.

Excellent tactics and a honourable rant NMD.

The Company knows the deep integrity of LAMEs and will play on that to manage the inherent deficiencies within its policies and self serving management. They know how difficult it is for us to prolong the ground time or even AOG an aircraft.

In light of being pushed too far, as NMD has said, we have no alternative other than to work within their constraints and above all, remain professional.

Don't forget how many managers we have seen come and go over the years, this lot are no different, they are on borrowed time.

We will persevere.

Spot on Aero,

Those posts are blatantly obvious same mgmt rhetoric of instilling fear, division and destabilising a decent bunch of guys.

I don't think too many of these managers are going to have a very nice New Year.
