Joyce ‘retires’ early 👍
 

And he’s gone. Good riddance!

14 years to late, but Hudson was there the whole time.

“This transition comes at what is obviously a challenging time for Qantas and its people. We have an important job to do in restoring the public’s confidence in the kind of company we are, and that’s what the Board is focused on, and what the management under Vanessa’s leadership will do,” added Mr Goyder.


the kind of company we are? One that screws its employees and customers for the benefit of the élite executives.

Booted out utterly humiliated 2 months before retirement. I cannot think of a better ending.

Now for a shake up of the board. I expect Goyder will step down soon.

The next hundred beers are on me.

That will be the most satisfying of morning dumps indeed.

Joyce's departure brought forward to tomorrow.

About time too. Should have happened years ago.

Is there anything more satisfying than AJ having to quit (as if it was his choice) in disgrace as the most hated business man in Australia, I’m elated.

The two job holders with the biggest "f you" smiles on their faces today:

1. The IT guy that hits the button suspending all company IT access.

2. The security guy who takes back the company ID and escorts him off the company premises.

Take the money and run??
 

Did he leave earlier than expected to make sure he got his money before any further possible Board actions?
Being a mathematician I reckon he has done his " sums " very carefully.

It’s a happy day indeed…but the sad part is it won’t get any better. It’s in the breed.

$24 million Golden Hand Shake. Poor b*stard, he'll be lining up at Centerlink next week.......

History will judge the Joyce years as NOT Qantas finest hours.

I guess operating crew will walk that little bit taller when they board their aircraft emblazoned with “Yes”.

HE'S FINALLY GOING!!
 

One wonders when Allan Joyce AC will be inducted into the Australian Aviation Hall Of Fame.

Sir Rod Eddington AO and James Strong AO have been inducted.

(Cecil) Arthur Butler OBE, who set the as-yet-unbeaten record for a solo single engine aircraft flight from England to Australia doesn’t make the grade, apparently.

But will it be enough to satisfy the market gods??

Good riddance to a person that brought his personal beliefs to the airline plus shutting down the airline. The other Board members should also leave since they supported him. Trust the new CEO understands we are an airline and thats what we do, fly passengers and freight not promote political views.

Share price has gone up, there is some salt in the wound….better give them all another 10 million for pain and suffering,

Goyder will be right behind him, I expect less than 2 weeks. He approved Joyce’s huge share sales, potentially knowing the pending ACCC case was coming.

Expect new chairman momentarily, a huge clean out of the board, and a new CEO who immediately distances herself from what they’ve done.

If she can knock out some quick-fire EBAs with good improvements to win back staff, re-employ the QF ground handlers, remove political aircraft stickers and agendas from the airline, improve the customer experience, fix the busted aircraft and order lots more new ones … she may just have a chance at succeeding.
