-Virgin Blue still operating
-Archerfield is still an airport

To those who call all QF Ppruners "whingers"
As you can see from the positive comments in this thread, Qantas staff posting on this website are not just whingers, complaining for the sake of complaining. Maybe it's possible that we actually had justifiable reasons to complain before. We have known for a long time that Qantas was not being run well, despite what that arrogant former management team told the public. In so many departments, rather than being assisted to do our jobs, we were hindered.
Even with the gloomy prospect of 1750 job losses, I feel more positive about working for Qantas today than I have in over 6 years. Dixon created a terrible, negative, fearful culture. By 2008, very few Qantas staff could say they were proud to work for this once great airline. Maybe things will change now. Time will tell...

Was it true that AJ, when back with JQ, would send a weekly recorded message out to all staff / manangers on their mobiles explaining the week past? I reckon that's really cool if he did, keeping communication up within the company. Does anyone know if he still does this with QF?
I truly couldnt think of anything worse. Most of those random messages on the phone from the airline arrive at 3am.
Dont know about Joyce, but really, would you want Brett Godfrey on your mobile at 3am shouting "HI GANG!! TIMES ARE TOUGH, BUT...."

Agree with Flugbegleiter! (We must have beers sometime... it's been a while)!
I recall a colleague talking to our manager of poor morale once in a metting last year. I remember saying
"Gerry, how can we ever improve the morale when the CEO has absolutely nothing positive to say in relation to Qantas staff"?
I keep saying it, I am very optomistic about Alan Joyce. He appears to be intent on fixing the bad relationship between staff and management. (So far!)

Walter, thats over the top, most people don't care if the bloke sh$gs elephants, he is actually trying to get QF back to straight and level after years of being in a spiral dive with GD, give the bloke a break and a chance, he is showing signs of actually communicating with the staff (of which most won't know how to handle after years of being treated like sh%t) if he bats for both sides who cares, who would want to walk in his shoes, very few of us, give him a go.
