STW, it is quite apparent that your comment is heavy with truth. We failed to fight for our careers, value and futures at every point of conflict with the Swires. We now find ourselves almost 30 years later with nothing more than a "job". There is no value left as it pertains to a "career". Anyone who pretends otherwise will find themselves at the mercy of a completely soulless organisation that cares not for you nor your family. I do not state that with a desire to preach, simply a recognition that the "princes" of Swire have finally achieved their aim. The only thing left to do is quietly wait for better opportunities...
