I thought the addage here is "play the ball not the man". Hasn't Jack got as much right to voice his comment as any of us? Should any of us not like his comment, ignore it! Can't be much simpler than that, surely?
The exact same sentiment I expressed has been voiced in at least two separate posts after mine, and this member needs to either back up his wild claims or move on.
Sometimes, the man needs to be played, and the post in question was a clear example of where it was appropriate, specially when done in a civil tone.
Am I stuck in "Groundhog Day" or has this same post been posted twice previous? That's spam I believe.
LW did note there have been tech issues, and some members posts have double or triple posted.

I've no idea what the union demands were, but I do know they gave notice about industrial action.
I'm not a union fan (far from it in fact), but I do know that unions are necessary to protect the conditions of workers. Anyone who suggests to quit and find another job if you're unhappy, has no idea.<snip>
Firstly, QF provided the required notice (51hrs to be exact).
However, in the interest of protecting their significant corporate assets and operating infrastructure, they grounded the airline to prevent any new risks to the carrier or passengers.
As for people having no idea suggesting that people should go elsewhere if they're not happy with their employer, I disagree. If things aren't going to change, you either need to pro-actively contribute to improving the situation, or know where to draw a line and walk away. I know from personal experience that if you stick around in places too long when things don't improve, this can seriously affect your physical health and mental well-being - of yourself and those around you.
I'd be confident that a good number of the workforce represented by these three unions would be going through what I describe above. While people all work and react differently, if you know you're not happy and it's affecting you with no sign of change - you need to become the change, or beeline for the exit.
