Back to the original topic please.....it's turned into another hate festival
Welcome to all new QCCA crew!!!
Let's work as one team and like the BA B scale they were brought up to near the A scale level over 4 years.
It's funny to see so many new crew making the same mistakes new LHR crew did with ordering etc.
Not one complaint or report hassling every honest mistake has been forwarded by LHR crew.
Had a order of 40 bottles of wine last month, 24 on the main deck J and 16 on the upper.
Had to laugh and tell the LHR crew just leave them in the boxes, the new QCCA guy's were making the same mistakes we did once.
Not a problem sent them back and sent a blackberry message to the CSM who responded he had 6 new guy's on the crew including a crew member with 3 trips under her belt as CSS out of Cat.
Heading back to Aus soon and look forward to new faces and a maybe we can turn our hate fest on Emirates, Virgin etc who are our real enemies.

Patty Stacker,
Why do insist as usual on adding fuel to the fire?
Was there anything posted that was not factual?
Or is being ex domestic with Jokestar have anything to do with your support of the domestic attitude and record ?
RW and Indamiddle were responding to the concept of Galley Hag that the flying was anyone's in the QF group to pursue.
Your post just continues and inflames the argument.
On another note,it will be interesting to see what comes of the S/H EBA.
Does anyone here know what is on the table at the moment and what the company is asking for?
Peanut Pusher,
I thought you had moved back to OZ a long time ago.
I was under the impression that the maximum contract for QFUK was 3 years?
How many crew from OZ are still there or what is the ratio of Australians to locals (EU or UK) working for QFUK at this point?

puncher ,
nice to see you pushing your same old [LHR base] barrow.
After all it was you who anointed yourself [years ago] as their number one apologist........
Six brand new QCCA's on a 3 day HKG, 4 day BKK or a 3 day SIN?
Riiiiiiiiiiiiiight...........
That sounds as plausible as the rest of your post.

Office girl Twiggsy,
I thought you were complaining about how bad the trips were out of Melbourne especially the Perth returns.
If that's the case then I would have thought that a 3 day Singapore would be a good trip.Now your telling us it's a junior trip but i guess your stories depend who you are talking to and what argument the office wants to push or put a spin on.
Peanut Pusher,I don't have anything against Emirates or Virgin or SIA or any competitor and I don't hate anyone.
The only beef I have is with those in the same profession in our own company who act in their own interest and end up shooting themselves and us in the foot.That is what some of us are illustrating.

RedTBar......
Skychild started this thread with "
QF Cabin Crew Australia Pty Ltd (Merged)
Just curious as to what people know and can share about Qantas Cabin Crew Australia re pay - hours or anything you have may have simply heard."
------------------------------------------------------------------
Yet all yourself and your fellow ppruners do is whinge and bitch and sook about short haul taking long haul trips and selling long haul out and Jetstar taking Qf domestic and blah blah blah.
Correct me if I am wrong but the thread is about QCCA.... The title is Qantas Cabin Crew Australia. Not current QF crew to bitch and moan about how things were back in the day.
If I wanted to add fuel to the fire I most definately could do so with little effort.
A few quotes if I may the first one from RedTBar
Office girl Twiggsy,

Yet another twiggsy comment. They're a little dry and crusty. No pun intended

Who cares. Start the "QF Crew that shoot themselves in the foot" Thread
"Or is being ex domestic with Jokestar have anything to do with your support of the domestic attitude and record ?"
Jokestar. Is that the best you can come up with. JQ Crew weren't grown in purpose built pods to work for Jetstar and some crew can fly the flag of finese better than some other crew who may or may not post on this website. I was suporting no one. I was supporting QCCA crew that want to hear stories about crew's first trips and fun things to do in JNB. Not hear about how long haul sold out short haul. How Twiggys is an Office girl. Who is the office spy. The VISITORS. Who gives a crap.
On another note,it will be interesting to see what comes of the S/H EBA.

UMMM RedTBar... QCCA thread. Who gives a crap about the short Haul EBA. Start a short haul EBA thread and have that closed down like all the other QF threads which are started and hijacked by cranky crusty crybaby crew that are just cranky crusty crybabies.
Yes I am adding fuel to the fire!
FROM roamingwolf
as far as your arguement about 'our flying' goes i couldn't disagree more and is a load of rubbish but you guys have to justify it to yourselves somehow don't you?
it also tells us something about the cosy relationship you guys have with mam and the justification for setting it up?
From indamiddle
short haul did vote in casuals.
short haul did vote in that any new employees and transfers from any other
division would NOT get band payments
UM... well these are but a few of the 75 pages of rubbish from which I posted my previous response.
Post Justified.
Ms Stacker 1. RedTBar - minus 10.

A synopsis of PS's latest post: Nothing of a concrete nature and nothing positive and at the same time not refuting any claims.
In other words PS's entire post contained absolutely nothing of any relevance except to inflame the situation.
I hope I never work with any of you.

Skyrider - I see the Thesorearse (sic) is getting a work out. The gift that keeps on giving.
intellectualess - isn't a word. It's intellectualness which is characterised by or suggesting a predominance of intellect. For that, I do thank you.
cacophany - is spelt cacophony with an "o" which is a discordant and meaningless mixture of sounds. As this is a typed thread I fail to see the significance.
dross - is a term a Metallurgist would use to describe a waste product taken off molten metal during smelting, essentially metallic in character. Generally coal of little value.
So you are saying that I have an intellectual way of making sounds of insignificant coal. Not too sure about that one BUT whatever wins the derby.
Bemused eye brow raise. Shake of head.

RedTBar - you are an intellectual giant amongst giants. I'd like to award you the crown. Eat a Piece of humble pie and retire to the countryside to live my days out as an self respecting Episcopalian would be proud of.
I hear Short Haul sold you out. Get em. You get em Tiger.
This is my passive/aggresive attempt to prove a point.

Patty Stacker, just go back to jetstar,
It must be sheer hell flying with you.......
You last few posts are a clear indication that you have forgotten to take your pills.
Boy! it just goes to show that the recruitment process is really flawed when someone like you manages to get in!

For entertainment value I'd give Patty a big thumbs up.
I'm guessing from the reaction on here it is forbidden to make comment on the monotonous details of SH/LH/MAM/JQ history. Just because the facts are posted again and again doesn't make them any more interesting. The same posters with the same historical arguments continue to wage their war on each other here at the expense of yet another QF thread.
We all get it loud and clear. We should be ever thankfull to you all for the opportunity you have bestowed upon us. And to ease the guilt of allowing us all to earn half of your earnings you will forever hold short haul accountable as they stole your flying, and dared to bring in the MAM's in the first place.
The undercutting started years ago with the BKK base. QF would have brought in QCCA with or without your consent, what you all did to vote up the EBA was to protect your own lifestyles for the next 5 years and earn a nice little bonus (very QF management style) at the same time.
Rather than waste your time arguing over "who did who over" why not go and enjoy the lifestyle you've all so desperately fought to keep. When the current EBA runs out QCCA crew will be able to fight for their own improved conditions, and as history does have a habit of repeating itself you can bet your $3000 sign-on bonus it will be at your expense.
