Dear Qantas Engineers Union,

This is important. If you're going to go on strike because your pay-rise isn't big enough, make sure that the planes you maintain don't develop holes in them. Especially when you're also concerned about outsourcing maintenance, despite this plane never having had heavy maintenance outside of Australia. Please allow me to demonstrate.

Not good:

Much better:

Comprehend?

Fuck you,
Ian

Well, that just scared Jen off aviation for good.

I loved the news article Kim linked to earlier with some QANTAS executive going on about how the plane wasn't a rustbucket. Yeah, it seems it was WORSE than a rustbucket ...

Dear Jen,

I have a list of people who should die. If we keep talking about the Cyrus family and I pass this list onto you, can I trust that those listed on it will not be alive in the morning?

Regards,
Ax

Wait! I like being alive.

 

[Axver]

Wait! I like being alive.

Don't worry, you're on the "should have their legs broken" list, not the "should die" list.

Decent engineers can fix rustbuckets.

helooo gluey, did the man bring home a piggy for you?

his nicknames not Grunta for no reason....

Awww, he's clingy and needs a fwiend.




Kick him in the balls.

I doubt he has any. (friends or balls!)

 

[coolian2]

I know that perfect reputation of QANTAS's couldn't last... but there's no need to blow holes in it that size!

As long as they keep outsourcing maintenance, it won't be a problem. If that is the kind of work we see from the Australian engineers.

Greedy idiots.

Hrm. My personal experience with outsourcing is that it is a Bad Idea, except maybe for telemarketing jobs. But I think jobs like that shouldn't exist anyway.

It's like NASA giving the contracts for their spaceship building to the lowest bidder... can't be good.

It's like a bad riddle!

 

[WildHoney]

I believe congratulations are in order Ax

 

[coolian2]

Especially when it's being outsourced to places like Singapore Airlines Maintenance, who kinda, a little bit, have a good record.

 

[Axver]

It's like NASA giving the contracts for their spaceship building to the lowest bidder... can't be good.

Ha, all through the 19th century, the New Zealand Railways Department had a policy of giving construction contracts to the lowest bidder by default. The details did not matter at all, just whoever gave the lowest price got it.

In most cases, this surprisingly enough didn't actually cause any problems. In most cases.

 

[mysterious_jen]

ahh fuck ax i missed the 60 k .
