For the sake of us here at CX I hope you get a good deal, although with guys like you in J* I think I know what to expect.
Does anyone else see the hypocracy of a CX pilot asking every one else to protect their pay?
The home of B scale and now C scale pay - perhaps if you hadn't bent over and allowed DE-FO pay in Aus to drop to $92K the J* pilots would have had more ammunition to bargain for better conditions.
The same position at J* under the offer would attract a $106K base pay and the potential for a command in 2 - 4 years.
So at least when CX was paying $120K there was the opportunity to compare less favourably the conditions on offer.
