The share registry collects & counts the votes and the chair or nomnated proxy has the formality of casting them as counted afaik. Employees count for a very small minority of the shares held. Even if allowed it would be merely a moral victory but worth trying anyway.
I don't know where this campaign is going to end up but after reading Nassensteins latest memo re: IFE it doesn't give you a warm fuzzy feeling. Having said that there is a lot of construction about to take place on the jet base which would be the largest jetbase update in a while. So on one hand they are making some sort of investment but on the other they are raping and pillaging everyone from shareholders, to passengers and staff.
The staff here are long term employees and hope to be around long after the current board and CEO are gone, they are short term contracted employees playing with the lives and livelihoods of thousands. What do hope to gain when they will be gone before the next cabin upgrade or EBA?
Also seeing olivia front the media makes my blood boil. I know she is the puppet for other faceless people but what would she know about the staff here and what they have done and endured for the company. At least she brushes her hair now before fronting up before the cameras she must read some unflattering comments about her appearance.

The last notice has nothing to do with the impact of the current actions. They sold us out on the IFE work months ago. They intend to dump the 738 stuff after next agreement is eventually reached.
The plan for our actions is pretty much on track with what we expected.

Well done Steve with having a copy of a letter he was involved in more than 5 years ago,makes you feel great(not) reading that catch phrase over and over again.Bet he never thought that would surface more than 5 years after the event-must be some more interesting stuff floating around somewhere in the Tasman!

O/T bans must be starting to hurt, got asked personally tonight if I would work O/T tomorrow night.
Unfortunately, I've already planned to remove "belly button fluff" tomorrow night. Would have loved to have been able to help!

Ok, I’ll bite RE: O.T. bans.
Unfortunately for W.A. travelers there have been heaps of delays, not only in Perth but also all the WA regional ports.
As soon as you get 1 small problem in the morning, it all turns to sh*t.

Herald Sun is reporting that PIA action has been called off tomorrow. Is this correct? No notification on ALAEA website.
