Stinky Harbour forum or no, you would have to be completely out of touch with reality to not have at least an inkling of what things are like at CX before you came. Are we all really to believe you were just toiling away on the Navajo in Namibia or whatever until CX called and offered you a job? And then when you got to Hong Kong, lo and behold, an industrial dispute? And so now that you finally stumbled across PPrune you feel bound to "warn" prospective applicants?
The credibility issue is valid IMO. But if you really are that crestfallen that CX hasn't turned out to be everything you expected then you have my pity. Guess you'll just have to struggle along on that 340 S/O pittance...
