Aero pix's post perfectly sums up why things will never get better for EK pilots. The fact that it was quickly seconded only illustrates it more.
Woe is me. It's too hard to move home. The contract jobs on offer aren't perfect. I want more of my colleagues to leave and fewer guys to join so management has to do more to make me stay (although I will not leave regardless of how bad they treat me)
Pathetic, really. Literally hundreds of EK guys have left in the last few years. Very, very few of them regret that decision. Many of them wish they had made the decision earlier. Heaps of very good jobs are around. None of them are perfect, many of them are a hell of a lot better than EK, but you have to get off your ars* and make an effort.
But you keep wallowing in your self-pity and waiting for others to make your life better. Those with similar attitudes make it easy for managers and ensure mid-East PPRuNe will be entertaining to read for years to come.
Ah, the conceited arrogance of knowing you're right, have you worked for EK?
Some here do have reason to stay, just because you want to be the duty hero and lead the charge doesn't mean you're right. There are many who have left and are happy, there are also those who would not jump so quickly if given a second chance.
The simple fact remains that no job is perfect, but if you've had enough you'll move on. Someone having a different point of view from yours doesn't make either correct and neither does your condescending post.
