The inconvenience you feel is probably the way the rest of HK pax feels. However, just because you are inconvenienced does not mean that the pilots are wrong. Pilots, just like yourself, are employees of a company. When their working conditions deteriorate, they should have a right to discuss it with their employer. Unfortunately, we're just in the crossfire.

How would you feel if you went to work on Monday, expecting to be home right after work, and suddenly being told of an immediate business trip and be gone for the rest of the week. And when you return on Friday, expecting 2 days off, when all of a sudden, you're told you'll have to leave again on Sunday. Not much of a life, eh?

I'm not a pilot (yet), but I would hope for some sort of stability and plan out my family life. It's unfortunate that we are all inconvenienced by this dispute but we can all hope that a resolution can be made soon. Don't just look at the picture from one side.
