. It really will be time for everyone to think about leaving if that happens because it will be a sign that the oil majors have lost all touch with reality
Meanwhile, you won't burn any bridges because I doubt you'll hear who's won the Shell contract for a while yet. Go and work for either CHC or Bristow. They both fly for the oil majors. At the moment about the only differences between the two is that CHC is still living in Areta and looking at moving to the death camp next year and although you'll probably get about the same money with Bristow they have a 25 year seniority spread, whereas most pilots with a reasonable amount of experience join CHC at their maximum year 14, so only have annual reviews to look forward to. Both companies are major players with similar standards, but a different way of looking at the same thing.
