Qantas haven't given up yet.....:shock:
Phone rings at the home of Lesley Grant, Qantas Loyalty CEO, 5am this morning (Sunday).
Grant answers to hear a thick Irish accent:
"Lesley, why is your mobile phone off?"
Grant: Because I need a little sleep following our 1-hour yarn at 3am this morning
Irishman: Well what are you going to do? WOW has now gone public with emails to its members about dropping QF.
Grant: Dunno Alan. I'll buy some time by placating the QFF membership with another soothing email like we sent last Friday, assuring members that they can continue earning points at WW until 31 Dec.
Irishman: And then?
Grant: Our negotiations with WW continue.
Irishman: Seriously?
Grant: Well, we'll see.
Irishman: OK, make sure the last bit is in the member email. Meanwhile I sense a major f-up, Lesley. You'd better get to work. Meanwhile, I'm looking at the next round of senior executive culling which I will likely implement, as is traditional, over the Christmas period. Got it?
Grant: Er, yes boss.
