Dear cgn32r.
That was quite a post but allow me to reply, beginning with a quote from you: "the role of the board was amateur level (also as expected). And this confusion is the consequence of all of that..." End of quote.
Now, correct me if I am wrong, but I do think that the board you mention is elected democratically by majority votes from your very own colleagues, and manned by those who wish to step up and work for better conditions for all of you as a group.
That they have failed to live up to your personal expectations does not make them amateurs, I am sure they have tried their best in a hard negotiation with management.
The real problem is when a selfserving few get the idea that even if they are part of a team, they do not have to respect the desire of the majority of their colleagues. 57 against 33, remember?
When the desire of this majority is undermined, that is when the confusion that you mention, starts. Because that is the whole foundation upon which democracy is built, namely: majority rules.
With regard to your last line, I see that I have touched a raw nerve with you with my opinion on strikebreakers, their morale and attitude towards their very own colleagues.
Luckily we are not in the late 30's anymore and the internet has been invented, so now also foreigners are allowed to have an opinion (and voice it) -of what happens inside Germany, even if the company is Danish.
I know many in Star Air and have high regards for them all, they have always praised the company and the high motivation inside the pilot group. So I sincerely hope that when the next vote comes up, this time the desire of the majority will be respected, letting Star Air continue to grow and be a great place to work.
HARM shooter: Good luck to you and your colleagues, remember to watch your back!
Over and out
