Captain Sherm,
It may well be perceived as a cruel post and I accept your opinion that it presents an unprofessional image, IMHO, the decisions that were made by some in the name of personal gain was done at the great cost to others.
Theirs is not a victimless act ( yes, I know, grammatically incorrect, but I hope you get my point ).
I do not believe this issue has anything to do with employing overseas pilots, it is about corporate ethics, a one star does not change its spots.....
cut cut cut, slash slash slash, money money money.
First it was, employing on lower conditions - increased shareholder profit (ISHP), less service - ISHP, cheaper maintenance - ISHP, an attempt to again lower conditions - ISHP, reduce training cost (candidate pay) - ISHP and ISHP = increased executive bonuses....
As stated in my earlier posts, good luck to Joe, but the horse bolted quite some time ago WRT to engaging some sort of corporate ethics.
