If anyone thinks we are going to bumble along and come out the other end unscathed...well, can't really help you.
I would like to think that applies to the entire airline group staff, not just pilots.... there's a Chinese saying that translate to 'instead of an agonising long term painful death, might as well just slit the throat now', everyone employed in the group would be anxious because of that blabbing by the company week in week out. People would be looking at worldwide news everyday, and see EK, Qatar, Etihad all these massive oil-rich countries shedding staff from all across, BA threatening to fire everyone etc, yet the company seem to be doing so little to preserve cash, which is contrary to what they say in the propaganda every week. And with the history of the company, everyone knows something's going to be up (or down), but the wait and dragging along does not help people planning their life. The false sense of security is probably going to do more harm than good for some staff.
