Re: Qantas Australia grounds its ENTIRE FLEET.... all QANTAS-based plans halted, passengers stranded
Govt. should intervene ..

Looks like they will.....

~~~~~


The Australian minister for transport, Anthony Albanese, said the government would take action to intervene in the dispute.

"We are very concerned about Qantas' actions, of which we were notified only mid-afternoon, with no advance notice from Qantas at any stage," he said.

"The government is making an urgent application to Fair Work Australia [an industrial court] to terminate all industrial action at Qantas. This will be aimed at both actions by unions and by Qantas management."

Union shop. Just like Queensland Rail. Occupied by apathetic losers who wouldn't work in an iron lung, all bitching about how the boss does nothing and makes all the money.
Gee wonder why their jobs get outsourced.

And sadly, this is happening in the US too, and strikes are imminent here as well. If contracts are allowed to expire and management ties up resonable requests for a cost of living increase for employees and takes away year end bonuses, the CEO should not receive a multi-million $$ bonus every single year. In the meantime, crewmembers are making so little, they qualify for food stamps. Pilots @ some airlines make as little as $25K and flight attendants making as little as $18K. Do you really want the person with your life in their hands preocuppied with how to feed their family or pay their rent? It happens every day. I know, because I am one of these crewmembers.

Someone from Alice Springs just commented on a FB news article about the grounding that the only airline that flies to and from there is Qantas. So basically people can't fly in or out of there. I wonder how many other remote places are in the same boat?

Qantas wanted this to happen it's the catalyst they've been waiting for to move all their operations off shore to Asia and the only thing the government will do is give them money to help them move. When Bluescope steel fired 1400 workers the government gave them 100 mil for their troubles, Joyce knows exactly what he's doing and has been rewarded for it.
