Qantas Mainline to recruit

Are we really hanging on that tight??
Too serious to enjoy an April Fool's joke?
Qantas pilots "raped"??!? That is a disgusting allegation. Just ask any rape victim, I'm sure they can highlight that what we are experiencing at Qantas is nothing like what they experienced.
Where has our professionalism gone? Get a grip. Yes, I don't like the direction the company is travelling either.
BUT, we still have a job (temporarily?), a skill, a life in a fairly liveable country.
If you feel THAT passionate about it, find someone else to work for (worried about seniority, take LWOP).
Come on guys & gals, let's be professionals & keep our heads up.

I felt it was on topic because it is the most convenient/easiest way for a QF S/O to actually GET promoted
Get those LOP up to date...
This rumour was sourced from a Perth Based line Capt. Probably as reliable as the TSV Refueller. Given the amount of projected expansion in fly in fly out it seems a possibility. Especially considering all the LWOP given to FOs and the short sighted nature of establishment planning.

Cheapest place to park excess crew. Look forward to minimum hours and minimum pay.
Credit hours this month. Lots of assigned patterns to rescue operations.

Not true.
As the precedent has been set by all the other DEC's coming to oz in various forms, QF are going to offer DEC's on the 737 to further marginalise mainline. (and to save money...of course) They know AIPA are totally impotent now and short of a mass walkout (89 anyone) there is nothing anyone can do about it.
Everyone is focused on the demise of mainline. Keep an eye on shorthaul.
Apparently, there are heaps of blokes in HKG and the ME looking to come home and all have vast NG or bigger left seat time.
Interesting times.

Nunc est bibendum
So let me get this straight, rather than alleviate an excess of F/Os and S/Os in some categories, QF is going to employ outsiders who will save them less than half a million per annum across 8 crew. It's cost them more in redundancies for those 8 crew than what they would supposedly save.

Sonny, I suspect that is a wind-up... particurlarly as the short haul EBA is up for negotiation this year and the slots have been advertised internally.
