Oh wow, congrats to you too WanabeVB. That's ace! You two will have to introduce yourselves to each other quietly on the day. Hehehe!
Perhaps all of our efforts are going to make a turn for the better, girls!
*fingers crossed*

Got the call on Friday night, nearly choked on my dinner. "Congratulations your in" the voice on the other end of the phone.. Hasn't sunken in yet. Wow I too have to relocate so it's all systems go. Does anyone have a link to the VB EBA as I thought it was mentioned previously in this post. Congrats to everyone who got the call. I'm sorry to those who didn't- but never give up.There are alot of opportunities at the moment & you must stay positive. I've had plenty of "no thankyou's" & each time I learn a little more from each interview and I try to do better the next time. Goodluck.

Gloria,
The EBA is on the FAAA website. It expired almost one year ago and negotiations are still on-going for the new one. "Google" CAP 371 to start getting info about our new EBA- this is the document that Virgin is using to base our new EBA on. Really take the time to understand, and ask lots of questions of current crew, about how any changes will affect your lifestyle. You will all be able to vote on the next EBA and you need to be informed. You'll be amazed how one bad clause in the EBA can affect your life for the next 3 years.
Oh.... and welcome to the company.

Hehehe thats sooo kool! WannabeVB and STF get to meet each other, and at the same training school!! You'll like, have to send pics or something beforehand so you'll know who you are.. instead of going around asking 'you STF?' or 'WannabeVB?' lol that'd be so funny!!

Make yourselves known!
Hi guys,
It is Sunday afternoon and I still don't believe it has sunk in yet!!
Gloria and Wannabe, you guys are going to have to pm me soon to tell me your real names so that we will know who we all are before training begins. I think it is great to have "study buddies" in training school.
Anyway, I am currently having problems with my pprune site, so I don't know if everyone else is. Pprune is telling me that I have 2 new pm's but when I go to my inbox they aren't there. HOW FRUSTRATING!
Anyway, will you guys pm me to let me know - Iulia, have you sent me a pm because I don't know if you were one of the 2 new pms that I didn't get
I have told half of Melbourne my good news - however, the other half (which includes my mum and dad still don't know ) - I know that sounds harsh, BUT tonight we are going out for dinner for my mums birthday today, and I will tell them over a glass of KARDONAY (kath and kim style)
hehehehehe
Keep me posted as to what is happening and if I don't reply to your pm's its because I can't open them up!
Take care,
STF
