Cool

Gulfa,your point taken,no offence,therefore intended.

Crap Flyer,valid reasoning,about declining positions,but if the post of TRI pays 5000 pcm,and the Line roster,degenerates,many will come forward,there is no association,therefore no unity,in public.

Those of us who came here,gave up good jobs,made commitments,and now to leave,its a big step,and that fact I feel is valid.

Were all trying to do what you have achieved,but you had certain advantages,that are simply non existant here,and whilst I have no axe to grind with DECs,as individuals,your presence is part of the rift,and fragmentation of the pilots.Everyone,is out for themselves,including you and your fellow DECs.

Obviously,EK management know this,and expoit it,now,but how will it end up in the long term,the treatment being meted out?
Not everyone,has the moral foresight you have,and many have come here,from less,open backgrounds,and will grab extra money at the expense of their colleagues.No question,and those who do are more than welcome.

It is classic divide and conquer.The line pilots will pay,long term for the improved life(for some) of the trainers.

I doubt there will be profit share,this year,but to introduce this pay "adjustment",at a time of expansion,and when people should be wanting to join EK,is completely baffling to me,I have met not one person,who flies in EK who sess this as anything other,than bad news.

With no credible,sensible non threatening response to offer,we are being punched up in the playground,minus our specs,with one hand tied behind our backs.

Unless I am missing something?Its put up,accept,or leave,and I didnt think that I for one would be facing that choice in EK.Never.
