sobering thoughts on reality

Hi guys, I am still well aware of how frustrating the above ongoing issues with Ek were and obviously still are but for those of you thinking of jumping ship be very sure of your options first.
I just recently successfully passed my training with Korean and the four weeks of line training hell has left many more scars than the previous ten years of perceived abuse from EK. No matter what your experience or ability you will still only have less than a 70% chance (depending on fleet) of surviving. Normal rules simply do not apply and when your families financial stability, house and profession are in the hands of mad men it is an awful experience.

However, once out on line it is a good job, so I am told. I am still recovering from shock.

Beware!
