Yes, I'd still come but only for the sunshine.
The results of these polls are meaningless anyway. Some guys have so many multiple pseudonyms they end up having a chat with themselves. Is that called chasterbation? Others have never worked for EK but feel qualified to comment. When I joined I thought EK were great to work for but while still positive, that has changed. The question I have for myself is how much because it has really got worse and how much my perspective has changed as a former honeymooner.
I have seen friends join and seem like pigs in !!!!! for a couple of years and then things have gone downhill. The guys that still enjoy it accept it for what it is, not a bad job, a captains airline and get on with it. Utopia Airlines it isn't but I have to laugh when I sit around with my mates going on about the old days. If they were so great why did we leave?
As to Choice jobs, my first job was the best job anyone could ever have but after a few years, you get used to it and start to look for greener pastures.
