You're falling for it, they made the line rosters lifestyle worse so you're up for training. Everyone loses, line rosters are going to be shocking and EK don't have to raise the training allowances to attract potential recruits, it's called "cost neutral" - seems to be the only thing someone learnt on his management crash course.
The downside is that we need new guys to join the airline and training, overall a very quick knee jerk reaction. Training will only become a harder job, pro's and cons both ways.
