Take Five
"They can give us more of the same but they will destroy themselves."
Unfortunately for us, these clowns are not the long term employees of Qantas. They come in for a few years and make more money in that time than you and I will make in a lifetime with the company. If they fail, they award themselves a bigger pay rise, and take a massive golden handshake, and move on to the next poor company.
Ultimately, we are the ones being destroyed by their actions.

Qantas to shelve new airline: report
Qantas is set to shelve its controversial plan to launch a new premium airline in Asia as Europe's economic turmoil hits the confidence of Qantas management on the project, the Australian Financial Review has reported.
The AFR said it could reveal that after a year of planning a multi-billion dollar investment in the subsidiary airline in both Singapore and Kuala Lumpur, Qantas executives would prefer to halt the captial-intensive project and instead focus on the safer option of an alliance with Malaysia Airlines.
Qantas' plans for its new Asian subsidiary caused union outrage, divided federal politicians and at the height of the union dispute resulted in the grounding of the airline's entire fleet followed by both parties being sent to arbitration at Fair Work Australia.
The unions have argued that the Asia tie-up would see Qantas move a substantial part of its operations overseas, costing local jobs, and called for job security to guaranteed in the industrial agreements.

Is there any truth to the rumour that arbitration will NOT give us back-pay?

Qantas faces renewed takeover talk: report
Qantas Airways has become the subject of renewed speculation of a fresh takeover effort from a private equity bidder, possibly led by former chief executive Geoff Dixon and advertising executive John Singleton, according to a report by The Australian.
Mr Dixon, Mr Singleton and investment banker Mark Carnegie, under the umbrella of Global Aviation Asset Management, were rumoured to have expressed interest in Qantas three months ago, but reportedly backed-out amid concerns about the rocky global outlook.
However, the possibility of a private equity move for Qantas has remained the subject of speculation, both because of the drop in Qantas’ share price following the grounding of its fleet last month and renewed private equity activity.
The airline has reportedly assembled an internal team to address any corporate activity pointing to interest in the company.
The airliner’s shares, at $1.45 are only slightly above the company’s record low of $1.37 reached on October 5, while the $700 million offer for Spotless Group by Pacific Equity Partners has suggested that there may be private equity appetite for Qantas, even if the Global Aviation Asset Management group does not renew its interest, according to The Australian.

That's what we've heard too....That FWA will "punish" both sides, this is to be our punishment, if this is true wondering what the companies punishment will be ?

Having trashed the airline (a topic the above is only a fraction of) all MP can come up with is "YOU LOSE". For QF management this has been a bit of a game to which they had access to the bank account to spend as they liked. They did but QANTAS WAS THE LOSER!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So all this grief has been for nothing. 
he's coming across as a real drama queen,
did so with his grounding
again with the red q fiasco
then his many public announcements,
not least that he is in some gay relationship
the death threats, anzac day p.a.'s
the caring irish love of qantas' rich long history
sheesh, time to these clowns to go.

and the industry standard annualised salary?

buttmonkey1 and others that feel outrage at this deal, get yourself to a feedback meeting and cast your vote.
If you are not on shift, well how much do you really care?
Qantas WILL allow you on base/ramp to attend the meetings. Not being on shift is no excuse.
If you don't cast a ballot, you have NO say. Be that positive or negative. Be part of the process or s.t.f.u.
