A good reason to come, mate. If you are single, come to Hong Kong for a couple of years. Enjoy the easiest (and most boring) job you will prob ever have. 16-19 days off a month (eg. 3 trips and 1 sim ride/mth). Its not cheap to live in HK especially with so much time of to kill. Go travelling once a month - explore the region on you ID90 tickets - and dont even think about your pathetic "job" nor the pathetic company that you "work" for. Plan to leave the joint after sometime not to distant after you have upgraded and actually flown the "big jets" - heading for a more fun flying job (back home or anywhere else for that!), where you actually also have fun with the chicks behind the cockpit door. You work more than half your life - therefor - fun at work is to be considered and you will not find that at CX - thrust me.

At work - a good reason NOT to come here. Its only on rare occasions you will socialize with the hosties - if for whatever reason you might want to. Most of them head out in small "same spices" groups or alone with their tripod and take "funny" pictures of themselves to show to friends. Heading back to their room to eat their cup noodles full of msg. The onboard service u get at work is boring and pretty average at best - unless you lic. the ISM or another of the senior chick up her a.. Most of the time theyare just useless or brainless or both. The company now almost only hire young honkies and they dont give a horses a.. about the job (cant blame them!). To them you are a useless gweilo (white/black whatever) busdriver (as they are useless waiters to you).

Hope to see you around.
