the question is , IF THESE PEOPLE TAKE MORE PAYCUTS , will this solve holdens problems and make life better for our country .
TIME WILL TELL IF YOUR RIGHT PRYDY - GOOD LUCK !!!
Did it ever occur to you that the pay cut might be temporary until the economy gets better and then go back to what it was or maybe even increase?

If you are running low on petrol do you slow down to use as little as possible until you get to the next servo and then when you have filled go back to the original speed or even faster to catch up?

Or do you speed up immediately so you get to the servo more quickly so you don't run out and get stuck on the side of the road.........

Not long ago the QLD Government determined that they could not afford to pay all the public servants and had to reduce payroll cost by 10%.

Someone suggested a 10% pay cut across the board so all retained their jobs but guess who went bezerk over this idea.
Nett result 10% are now unemployed. Tell me how they were helped by their union.

George Orwell was right when he wrote "All animals are equal but some are more equal than others".......
