I'm sure the LAMEs working at most regional and G.A. airports will be thrilled with the increased Overseas Allowances.

Touche Kanga, all those regional and GA guys along with 99.9% of QF blokes.

The only guys to gain from this fantastic windfall our hard working executives have achieved for us will be themsleves when they go on their jollies or those fortunate Chow Mein Club members.

I can't comprehend how dumb that mob are. Getting potato head to support them that will pull the votes. Aren't they about to employ him back at Bex if they get in again? It looks like he has a vested interest in this election.

This guy's from Heavy Maint in Sydney right? Was wondering (all you ex Line 1 guys out there) what the associations response to you was after the announcement to close 245? Are you satisfied with the way they have handled the whole affair? I spose they are not to worried about votes.......

Fordran,
I also received an email at my Qantas email address from Tizian Zavarise. My letter read much the same as yours.

Although the first sentence of my letter read “Hi Gents, you may remember me, I am David Kemp I was an Ansett employee and until I retired from the post in 2005 I was the Federal Secretary of the ALAEA.”

Fordran you must just be one of Bruce Deahm’s special children.

As I have always maintained, and have said before, “One must be educated before one can make an educated decision”

Also received that same email!

Hava a colleague in Melbourne who was reprimanded for contravening QANTAS IT Policy by receiving emails at his work email address that were not work related. It was considered not to be 'company business.'

I wonder if Tish will receive similar treatment for his breach of the Policy, or whether QANTAS considers his election material "company business".

I am also curious as to how he has my email address. No conspiracies...I just don't recall having given my work email address to the Union, or any of the people nominating for postions on the ALAEA executive.

Yes, the same thoughts crossed my mind as I too have recieved this email. Perhaps the company believes that is in their best interests if this bloke, and those of his ilk, are at the helm for the next four years.

Unless I'm mistaken everyone is listed in QANTAS Notes Contacts so it's not hard to send it to you. If its a personal address then thats different. I am also concerned about the use of company email for spredding how to vote info considering the association won't allow a company email address to be used for their contact details.

The email address are listed according to name only (as far as I am aware).

To compile an email list of LAME's in the ALAEA only would be an arduous task at best.

Just hope he didn't get any 'internal support'!

Bingo Company Spy. The ALAEA specifically requests you not supply QF Lotus Notes address for correspondance. Would appear Mr Potato Head still has a lot of pull still.

BB, Tish is already a councilor so he would have easy access to member names so it's not hard to work out who to send it to. As he probably has plenty of time on his hands at the moment it wouldn't be too much trouble.

Nothing worse than a hypocrite in the case of the beloved councillor from Heavy Maintenance Mods. He who would not answer questions on the last eba if they were sent from a company email adress because he said that it not the right thing to do. He who refused to answre questions on how he voted when the executive decided to recommend a reduction in heavy maintenances conditions last eba (ecause he voted in favour), despite strong direction from the membership to vote against it.
He who has not been visible to anyone in line 1 since the announcement and closure of line 1.

But he is a smart cookie and in my opinion has found the right balance between the company and being on honest union official and we need him and the other stedy level headed minds in there. I recomend that all smart lames take a long hard look at the future and I think then will agree that now more than ever we need experience and stability not a band of morauding buckaneers from Mexico in our corner. I now that every lame in my area feels the same so dont forget to vote.

Well Mr Qantas, remember that sentiment when you and those of your kind have their work conditions severely reduced (or worse) whilst Bexley looks the other way.

Firstly, it is not a contravention of company policy to receive non company emails as you have no control over its occurrence, so maybe this colleague of yours was using the company email system to SEND emails!!!

Secondly the email I received from Tizian Zavarise was from a private email address and therefore is not in contravention of the company policy.


AND




Thirdly, Brake Boy, your company email address is freely available to any Qantas employee who has access to Lotus Notes, and by the amount of spam received on the Qantas email system, probably non Qantas employees.

Nevertheless most Qantas email addresses are either the first initial of the christian name followed by the surname if not the whole christian name followed by the surname. There is not rocket science to it, but I suppose to someone like you who can’t spell, it may be rocket science.

Indeed, my colleague was not in contravention for receiving, it was for keeping so as you can imagine the emails I have received from Tish have been removed already.

I would question whether IT policy has been contravened in the use of QANTAS notes by a QANTAS employee to further his own agenda. If this is OK, I have a heap of tradesman mates that would love to send you some advertising material. Perhaps I should advertise my own business. By your interpretation, I would be untouchable as long as I don't send it from my QANTAS email account.

Where did Tish get my name from? The ALAEA office I hear you say. I believe it is a gross breach of confidentiality for an executive member to use ALAEA infomation to once again promote his own cause. I dont agree with ANY correspondence being sent to members that isn't sanctioned by the ALAEA executive, and accompanied with all the official letterheads/stamps etc.

All I know is that in my work area the receipt of three emails from Tish has not promoted his cause amongst many of the members.

Just have to wait and see how it all pans out.
