Whilst I wholeheartedly support your claims, and as a QF employee I am well aware of how poorly we are treated by management, may I please ask that you be reasonable about the delays. Having just experienced a two hour go slow late at night, it was then up to me to go fast, stay alert at 2am and conduct a VOR approach, to then get a 10 hour rest before charging off again. There were better targets that night. My 'problem' was very very minor, yet paperwork bogged us down far in excess of what was reasonable.
Happy to help, but I've got a job to do too. |
There are no targets.
We are doing our job professionally & safely just NO overtime, thats all. The amount of O/T required to be done to keep sched is dangerous. |
Guten Tag Flugbegleiter! Good to see that you and your colleagues are eager to do their part in helping the cause! We must door beer things when I am in your part of the country next!
|
Am about to travel on another overseas airline that has QF contract line maintenance for turn round etc. Will the expected action carry across? In other words will there be delays?
|
Jakethemuss has it correct. What I believe we will see in the next few weeks (Geoff, are you listening?) will be a quiet grass roots revolt from a long suffering staff who are absolutely itching to show what passes for management in this company how they really feel about the bullying, harassing, lying, grasping culture that has developed under the stewardship of this CEO.
Geoff, you have no idea what you are up against. |
Great post Capt Kremin.
So very true............. |
kinda makes me wish i was still there now,just so i could stick it to these d!ickhead managers,i will be watching from the sidelines with a big smile on my face
|
E.P why not come with me and do another walk around the Sydney Domestic Terminal during peak hour.
"Pay peanuts.........get Monkeys" (I think I can still borrow the gorilla mask) We helped you Geoff when times were tough.............Now it's 1.5 Billion and it's TIME TO PAY |
those bloody drains keep blocking up!... again and again

To All
I am an ex QF LAME, who left QF for other reasons than the EBA, I have not voted nor have I had any input, I am living a happy life outside of QF, QF is not my employer.
To all the people who work for QF and think this action is unreasonable, will you, at your next EBA accept 3%, if the ALAEA is successful in its claims. Time is great, I can just hear it now, "How can we accept 3% when the Engineers won 5%" Pls give a bit of credit for the guys and girls who, after many years of dominance by a powerful company, have stood up for themselves. 81% of Engineers have voted to take on QF, no other group of employees have, the flow on effect will be for all. If the Engineers win, is not a precidence set for every other group of employees within QF when it comes to future EBA's.? Stick with them, play the game, if they lose nobody wins l |
turbo 5b,i don't think the mask would fit you,and this time we can watch from the sidelines as GD,DC ans MH get a right royal screwing.
P.S and i ain't no monkey anymore i've turned into a gorilla.:):):) |

A SCENIC DRIVE THRU QF MAINT HANGARS EARLY THIS MORNING SHOULD HAVE QF MANAGEMENT WORRIED AND THE PARTY HASNT EVEN STARTED:ok: Also noticed good old geoff's pay went from approx 5.2million to 6.7million last year. Now my math isnt perfect but does that not equal a 30% increase. GD - If you are reading this, you have no idea what you have just done. |

Cjam with all respect I would hardly call Aircraft Engineers "blue collar workers" They are highly trained Engineers, and I have nothing but respect for them. (As do most pilots). In my early flying I was seconded out to various jobs including Royal Flying Doctor Service, Airial Surveys, Air Ambulance etc, and this happened quite often for pilots in TAA depending on what happened in the economy at the time. Often based in some godforsaken outpost with the Engineer for company I learnt a lot from them, in fact I would now probably be extremely dead, if it had not been for one of them in particular. (I won't bore you with the details) anyway good luck fellas, you deserve everything you get. And I hope its a motza.
|
Go men !!!! Good luck and I will be interested to see how it pans out tomorrow as I negotiate the domestic network. As one pissed off pilot, you have my total support.

QGFT
Apparently there were a number of long term employees with Flight Training punted this morning-VR/CR.?
The "usual" reason given, ie "your position has now been reviewed and now no longer required in this business......going forward" OH PLEEEEZE ! Where do these goons from HR get off with this line. We're talking once loyal staff who have have an accumulated 87 years of service !! There's a great line in the movie -Network when Peter Finch yells from the window: I'M AS MAD AS HELL AND I'M NOT GOING TO TAKE IT ANYMORE !!! Good Luck guys:ok: |
I can only imagine at a board meeting if the board gave itself only 3%.
You go boys and girls, stand tall. You can't do any worse then what the Flight attendants did/got for people who follow on behind them. I see some real courage here. |
