Liam G. a short while ago, mentioned the "bend over and take it" routine....and if it was noticed by other airline managements.. .The short answer is...yes, and it has been going on with many carriers in the middle east for years...nothing new really.. .With the labor laws in HKG the way they are, the AOA guys have no other option....other than to move on to another employer.. .And, considering their many hardline attitudes...who would want them?
