SPI,
I have a job and have no intention of joining Cathay with or without a ban.
My question was in response to the inferance in your first post that anyone turning down employment with Cathay could expect to be employed by them once the ban is lifted. I was wondering on what basis you made that inferance.
It would now seem from your reply that you made it out of pure wishful thinking to encourage support for your ban.
Yes there are many Airlines in the world. Right now very few of them are recruiting, and all have an over supply of applicants. There can be little doubt that some pilots turning down Cathay, either out of principle or out of fear of intimidation, will be surrendering their only chance of a job with a major airline. How many airlines have you been accepted by?
And for this sacrifice they will recieve your heartfelt thanks, and precious little else.
