Cathay Culture:
1) All your flying experience to date is irrelevant.
2) You are about to be trained by the best trainers in the world.
3) Ask questions and it will cost you.
4) You will be treated like a trainee until you have four bars.
5) Until you have four bars you know nothing
6) When you have four bars you know everything
7) You are not worthy to fly in low viz or in crosswind.
8) It is the FO's fault.
9) You are not worthy of a room in the new wing at the Rama Garden.
Basically the Cathay culture is to treat you like sh!t.
I hope this clears up your question.
