One thing should be clear to us all. This is no longer a career airline, not a real one. Lets all stop hoping and dreaming. Get yourselves set up in life with what you have, don't over extend. Every "extra" item ie boat, new sports car etc, you buy represents more labour you must give to CX. The best way to deal with them is to get to a point where you are totally independant of them and in fact don't need them. Getting set up for some (B scale) might be getting hours and qualifications and looking to a more stable career path at an Airline at home. For others it is getting your fiscal house in order as soon as you can. CX has painted themselves into a corner. Lets just do are jobs and NOT talk about ANYTHING else except pay. If they don't want that fine, lets see how long they can go patching things over.
