XCX ripping wheeze old boy.
However be careful if your are NOT ex CX. Large companies have a habit of spending inordinate resources and bringing their IT departments to a halt for weeks to trace stuff like that. Some companies have even been known to go into the more illegal side of searching just to find a whistle blower or a thorn in a senior manager's side.
Hacking into the systems of crew hotels has been reported from one airline, to gain access to phone records during an industrial dispute - illegal in that particular country. The anonymous caller number system in Hong Kong works for the receiver, but if your company has good contacts in PCCW it is said that it is a matter of a moment to have the dialer revealed.
So be careful out there. If you are that good at comms cloaking, you should be working in IT anyway.
Only the paranoid survive.

Who cares
CX is just a job.
Worrying about what CX might think about what you say is no way to live life. 'Life is too important to be taken seriously'
We have a 30% failure rate - why? How many times do you hear of guys passing a 3 bar or 4 bar, according to the C+Ter, then getting sin binned by the star chamber. When we only had pilots on the star chamber the failure rate was low single digit. Please someone tell me how NR is in anyway qualified to approve someone passing command course?
If you need an opinion on how many zebras you can keep in an enclosure then call IOC and ask NR his opinion. He would have been very useful in that monty python movie about african or european swallows - but only if he did his Honours.
Actually, maybe thats why we keep getting offered peanuts- we have a zoologist in charge! Lucky he wasn't a qualified proctologist or we would really be sitting uncomfortably now.
Guys and gals, its just a job...and not a very well paid one.
'A life lived in fear is only half lived'.
