Hi Guys and Gals, Im currently with pacific blue have interview with both VB and J* whats the general feeling as in better airline to work for is it true the new hires will only be on 70 odd K for first year with J*? Any Info would be great thanks.

3 pages later and the "experts" are still insulting Jetstar pilots - from their training to their operational standards to their moral integrity.

Yet STILL no-one seems to know what terms and conditions are actually contained in the EBA.

What a bunch of rocket-surgeons!

P.S - Did anybody really believe that WADD story? Really? Oh, for shame...... :ugh:

Oh Dear
 

Well after reading the thread in hope of learning about the TOPIC , I think I will reconsider wanting to go back to Oz for a position with J'star / Qf group, was more than happy to change seats/lower pay but if one has to listen to this crap Top of climb to the green ring forget it...
Really .....:yuk:

As a professional pilot I find the direct references to religion on a professional pilot’s forum offensive. I’m sure you can contribute without such references, if you can’t, then don’t, move on and find a religious based pilot forum, I am sure that they are out there.

Interesting. It's always an insight discovering who is 'offended' by a Christian reference....particularly when the reference is as innocuous as this one.

Shot Nancy, are you also offended by people posting 'There but for the grace of God go I' when referenced to aircraft accidents and incidents that they see could have occurred to them? I've seen that posted numerous times. What about when you read 'reap what you sow'? Are you offended by that one? That too is a biblical reference (Galatians 6:7 if you want to look it up. :E )Both of those are direct references to religion but I don't recall you ever voicing your objection or that it offended you! :rolleyes:

So why this one and why now and in what possible way could it be considered offensive to provide some context to the examples I used?

Hmmmm.....am with you on this Keg....I had to read his and your posts 3 times to work out how you could have offended him! Still no idea.

And by the way.....we work in a profession where lives are at risk daily....to NOT acknowledge the Creator's role in life is initself a religous statement. As pilots more than most we should be conscious of "Higher" things. Personally I have no idea how planes fly for example and I've been sitting in them big and small for 40 years! So as you say....... "There But For the Grace of God" is not an unknown phrase in my little lexicon.

If I was to look at the scriptures and see parallels....I'd be looking at the labourers in the vineyard who were arguing whether they were worthy of their hire. That would be about Matthew 20 and well repays a good think, from both sides of the QF fence.

Good Lord!

That was so untenably incredulous, I could almost hardly believe it!

What was this topic about, again?
