You know something is wrong...

When you're a Cathay Pacific Captain aged 49 and because of the cuts from the Company you can no longer afford to keep your children in school here in HK Alarm bells are now seriously ringing as this tells me I am seriously in the wrong job! I will be down $19,000 HKD a month so we have to cut $$$ and this in turn means we have to take our son and daughter out of kindergarten to stop us going under

Why is it I am also getting the double shaft? I have to take a pay cut in order to protect people on my base who joined just a couple of years ago. A base that I will NEVER be able to go on because it will now be locked up with extenders and DEC's.

Secondly if Cathay Pacific were so desperate to save cash then why is it that if junior pilots sign up to COS 08 they they DONT have to take SLS but I STILL have too? Just how much more does Cathay want to take from me?

Now things have gone too far
