Come on A/T, flying jobs aren't hard to come by. In fact you can basically write your own ticket these days, as long as you're no a complete twit! I do however agree with the "GOOD" statement. A good employer in hard to find! I think CX basically are the same as any low coster now. No conditions, apathetic mangement, poor career path in general. The glory days at Cathay are well and truly over. We in part have the A scalers to thank for that. Basically we keep signing our own death warrant every time we vote in these stupid elections. Until the pilot body has the bollocks to stand up and say enough is enough we really are no better off than the guys at Easyjet or Britannia. It really is sliding downhill fast.
