Qantas Grounds Entire Fleet

Guys,

You are not in Australia to know the full story. I am a Singaporean and there are many Singaporean who are working in Australia for Qantas and you can ask them to tell you the full story.

1. Many employees are fearful of a loss of job as there are news that
2. Management want to create 2 new airlines which there are evidences of loss of jobs.
3. Union want to be involved in discussion and decision making with union to ensure people are aware of what is going on and move with the company.
4. Union ask for reasonable pay increase and only certain department strike and Qantas can still operating without shutdown
5. Qantas Joyce get a 71% pay rise from 3 mil to 5 mil while all workers get the standard increase and after that, he started to ground Qantas.


What Joyce did was very wrong for everyone. You pocked an increase of 71% of salary and you arm wrested everyone. The government step in and the work resume but the delay cause a lot of problems. Imagine if you are suppose to attend a wedding and you miss it because of this unwanted cancel flight. Imagine if someone is in need of blood or emergency aid and someone die because the aid did not arrived on time...and so..
Corporate responsibility is important because life are at stake.

You can be a LKY in Singapore but when you bring this sort of attitude anywhere in the world, you wont survive anywhere and that is why Australia and the rest of the world are not meant for every Singaporean that think he is LKY.


Good luck to you because one day when your job is threathen to India and China, dont look for your union because you support this LKY and now you dig your own grave.

I truly admire and salute his courage, his guts and his decision.He is the man like Mr Lee Kuan Yew. The aussies have to be taught a lesson! You have to work hard for your wages and for your keep. High salaries and benefits don't just fall from the sky! But they have it good for many years - lucky people living in a lucky country. But sometimes luck do run out.Then you live in a shithole - luck or no luck.Shithole and dunghole will soon follow.

Yes I agree, good benefits do not fall from the sky, hence all high paying CEOs + PAP ministers _ high paying civil servants should get a pay cut by at least 50% and work for it. Not cut other peoples pay and raise their own. Pay cuts and reduction of benefits should apply to all equally...I for one believe that no PAP minister + president + civil servants on super scale are worth the money they are paid...lets start from the top and work the way down...starting with Alan Joyce
