I have to agree. Now that the vast majority are on COS 18 (...unbelievable), the company has complete discretion to cut and slash in any method they feel fit. I would suggest that an entire 777 fleet on the ground isn't going to go unnoticed, nor the fact that based pilots (most 777) are not flying at all. I would love to be proved wrong on this, but I can sadly predict that only the first shoe has dropped. CX management have thrown caution to the winds (never mind respect for their staff) and will take full advantage of the temporary crisis to enact permanent change. Their true nature is now on full display. It is a horror to behold when you strip away any lingering affection for this once great employer.
