@VVS I've just read that KQ agreed to pay their employees these ever when they returned to profitability.... Which they have.. So why don't they just stop with the daily ads and pay the DAMN employees???

1)The issue is that the crew wants ADDITIONAL pay back-dated 15 months ago... BS
2) As @Horton said, KQ is expanding so it needs 'new' crew... So it is a great recruiting ad campaign...

As mentioned before, I have been accumulating this counter as sentiment continued to plummet. I am about 55% to my targeted number of shares. I have picked at 45,44 and 43 (the last done yesterday). The price has rallied today which is a little dissapointing although it means I can at least sell and break even on some of my purchases.

I am convinced that we have not seen the end of the strike talk as the hearing of the dispute has been slated for 21st Oct. I only hope that if the strike is to materialise, let the strikers do it this month. It's better it happens now, that to have it hanging over the company like the proverbial sword of Damocles. Better to lance a boil than to have it fester into some malignant wound!

Despite add campaign for recruitment of extra CC being "genuine" i hope it has also scared the CC & their noisy union into bargaining to evade a strike. I guess KQ management would rather agree to something than face a strike & losses therein ...
Don't gamble; take all your savings and buy some good stock and hold it till it goes up, then sell it. If it don't go up, don't buy it...

We have to teach them a lesson! The unions philosophy is "if they give an inch, we take a yard"
