Chesty: there are 250+ pages on this thread. It's all here. Why have you not bothered to read through it all? So the question has to be asked, even if sent to you, will you read the information and properly digest with respect to all the other issues debated on this forum? Or like the other genius here will you compare a pilot's salary to what you could earn working at McDonalds & therefore judge it as a good thing? Will you want to consider the long term issues and ramifications of what C-Scale means to your life, career and what you're condoning?
Yes, it's a rumour network..... but join the dots. While this is outside of the box thinking for the average wannabe posting here, have you tried calling CX HR and asking someone in a position to give 100% factual information?
Another tip: don't email or call the CEO or Chairman.
