All MAM casuals emploted in the past 6 months or so are on contract C which gives them Guarrentered pay of 85 hours per month whether they work that many or not. All MAM casuals employed in the future will also be on contract C.

Your LHR based aren't you? flying about 5 years? and ex s/h?
When you have been flying about 6 times that and experienced what it was like before
we took over s/h
AO started
J*started
I reckon you might understand what we are talking about.We are trying to think of ways to stop the situation in OZ becoming like Europe and the UK.
I don't know if you are married or have children but if you did then you would understand what we are trying to stop happening.Not all of us can drop everything and go of to Europe and live on bugger all.
If you wanted to accept low pay and work over there for QFUK without super as well then thats your decision but we are trying to stop that from happening here.
There is no one forcing you to read this thread so you can stick to the QFUK thread and not be disgusted.as a matter of fact a lot of us in L/H were disgusted by the crew who accepted low pay with no super and took our flying.Just as you would be by anyone who accepted lower pay than you and did your job
by the way the other airlines you talked about with bad sick pay etc...mam's get NO sick pay or holiday pay.I don't know what you are saying about getting paid for holiday and sick pay up front.
As was said before what happens if your a mam and have holidays (no pay) and then you have a fall and break and arm or something and you are off for 3 months ( no pay) that means you get no pay for 4 months.
How can you pay a mortgage and support yourself let alone a family.
This started with an idea i had of trying to stop or slow down the company hiring casuals and the people having a shot at me are either s/h,mams or probably company .
As someone else said how do you go to a bank and get a loan for a car let alone a house if you can't tell them you will have a job in a few years time.
Now if you are defending that sort of situation with casuals then there is a job for you in QF management

Thank you roamingwolf for your heated and emotive personal attacks. Am sure Galleychick appreciates them too.
Consider yourself reported and I wish tightslot and friends good luck in finding you a new home.
You totally took my post out of context and attacked me personally for my education, the career I have chosen, the (third) airline i have CHOSEN to work for and my simple right to voice an opinion. You know nothing about me so how dare you get so disgustingly personal. The absolutely lowest form of low.
Your posts are completely rude and out of line for what is meant to be a discussion forum. Ie an environment where people can comfortably voice a range of opinions without others resorting to personal attacks.
Clearly I left QF for good reason with people like you hurling abuse left right and centre.
