not that it would change anything for the individual, but with pride he can say he was successful in at least one thing - destroying thousands of lives. Not to mention all the kids who lost their friends they grew up with, the Wives who suddenly needed to find a job after years living as housewife abroad, because in the best case the income of the ex pilot husband would not sufficiently support the Family. He can be very proud of what he created.
as a little reminder for HH and TC there are hundreds of pilots with experience on the the required Typ and route - give ‘em a call being ‘em back on their position, seniority and career profile without bull ****ting around a selection and testing and having a list of applicants etc.
just show how to stand behind employees. Yes covid left a hard hit, but you don’t need to keep playing arrogant games. Demonstrate what EK once stood for.
Good post. The initial media attention on C-19 seemed to concentrate on how much it had hit various economies and industries. But there is now a steadily dawning realisation that the days of employees chasing around the world, giving up all of their previously held employment rights for reasonably well paid but very insecure employment with an unscrupulous employer are now consigned to history.
Emirates answer to most issues in the past has been to throw money at the problem. I wonder if they have a plan B? They may well need one.
