You would be disappointed, no doubt, if I did not respond to your post.
The fact is that the late Abeles was indeed a scumbag, (one of Keating’s favourite parliamentary terms), before he became involved with Ansett in 1979.
Your friend Abeles exuded that famous charm for which he was noted, before he struck at his victim.
Like many of my fellow pilots, I was there well before he came on the scene, and viewed his exhibition of that famous charm when he ordered the B767/B737/B727LR, and announced it at a press conference, which off duty pilots were invited to attend.
The old “feel good” dynamics trick.
There is a significant difference between the resolution of the dispute under the normal processes of industrial action, through negotiation and return to work, and the acquiescence of the likes of the scabs.
So in that process, all of us would have returned to work for the company irrespective of how we felt about Abeles.
But to scab, as you must have done, is an entirely different matter, and required you to actually desert your colleagues and become the low standard of matter most of us walk around. (Oh dear - abuse again).
There were a number of Ansett employees who didn’t particularly take to RM either, but they still worked for the company.
Old CitXXXXXXXX and TSISISISI help you row that ever so slowly sinking boat, and provide a never ending stream of entertainment for those of us who have watched you slide into the mire of self righteousness, claiming you “did it for yourself”.
You don’t need to explain that, for in scabbing, it is self evident.
