Actually I don't find it funny at all. Crass and rude spring to mind. This is an indication of the intellectual depths to which we have sunk when we think the constant repetition of profanity is amusing. Actually the only funny side is that some people obviously think it is accurate - now that is a laugh.

...booble, do you think you could demonstrate a bit more sanctimony....? The reason it is funny is that it is because it is so true in so many ways. Why don't you think about that..... (ps, what do you mean by 'some people think it's accurate'...? IT IS accurate!!) hmmm, see it's your first post....how curious, NOT.

I think you two intellectual lightweights have clearly supported my view. What a pity that intelligent reason is no longer considered an asset. The one who shouts the loudest obviously knows the most. Or perhaps he who knows the greatest profanities is the winner. Back to the post though guys please.
Time to wake up now Bubble.....
That Video is one of the funniest things I've seen in a long time.
So funny I almost cried!! Because it's all 100% true, if you can't see that then you're obviously not employed by CX.
Good luck mate, you'll need it.

Who says pilots can't negotiate?
YouTube - Airline and Pilot Negotiation
Now this is funny - and I wouldn't trade headsets in PX/PT sectors for any more than 3-4%;-)

Video Maker : Cadet Pilot Interview
Go back to your xtranormal video account and trade the words (CX) for (Major Hong Kong Airline) everyone will know who you're talking about and youtube will be less likely to pull your video.
Re-upload to youtube or save as video file / MP4
If you cant save a direct video file from xtranormal Use video extraction software such as mac tubes / video sucker and scrape the video out of youtube into a file format and then re distribute to ALL video providers ..
Daily Motion - Myspace Video - Break TV - Live Leaks
These video providers then subload the videos to affiliate video hosting sites all over the net and the search engines become flooded with (Cadet Pilot Interview) Trust me! Toss Knows!.
If anyone else is creative and cant sleep at night due to lack of pay or anger then do a search for xtranormal and start making your own online videos.
Another way to express your concerns is to start a blog with blogger, blogger.com owned by google and cranks up the search results real fast.
Enjoy! Spread the anger ... I'm only getting warmed up!
PM me if you need any assistance.

Bobble is a moron
Bobble is the type of person who cringes at shows like South Park, family Guy etc who gets upset at the swearing.....but misses the complete point of the what is being said because he is distracted by the sensationalism of someone swearing.
Excuse me ...bobble .... do you get sensitive when someone calls you a "*&^%W&^Q%*E&^ wit" when you screw up something at work.....i.e. your more upset about being insulted then actually "the reason" for the insult.....so thus miss the whole point of why someone yelled at you....thus never learn.....and thus remain a moron for ever?
So the cartoon has a lot of swearing.....ok lets remove the swearing does the the actual point now get across the few brain cells you have and you now understand the vid?
Good ....if you do.....if you don't then the people this affects actually do care and think its a hoot, and don't give a rats ass if your sensibilties are offended
Cry more
Keeping Score.

There is a FAR more important issue being played out here. The fact that YouTube has pulled the video IS the issue.....for this simple reason: Cathay was obviously so panicked by the content (truth hurts doesn't it!!) that they made a specific complaint to YouTube to have it removed. This is a firm indication that they are nervous. Funny how they can't seem to recruit people based on the harsh facts of what they are offering. I think the genius that created the video is VERY capable of reintroducing a similar effort.....nudge, wink...! The Empire is wobbly.....

I agree that the removed video told more truth about the icadet scheme than CX does but I doubt they asked for it to be removed because they are scared, they have 1000s of applicants for the cadet scheme some with 1000s of hours. I expect they asked for it to be removed as it shows an impressive level of immaturity amongst some of its future and current pilots. If I was the traveling public and stumbled across it and saw all the comments about how funny it is from people who appear to be current CX pilots it would concern me if I was about to fly with cathay.
That is why I would ask youtube to remove it if I was CX, not because it may make it hard to get cadets. I think it is about 6 months from applying to being called for an initial interview, and expect most don't get that call. Yeah they must be terrified that they wont get people.
Yeap call me a boring, don't get it as its on many levels like family guy. It is not on many levels like family guy, it is just crap that is not very funny.

Sloppy Joe....I bet you're the life of the party at the annual Christmas bash...NOT. Yea, you go ahead and believe it was because of 'concern' about the level of maturity of CX crew. Based on that logic, Spitting Image (British political satire tv show in the 80's) would never have been created. Funny thing was, it showed the politicians as they really were...instead of how they liked to present themselves. A bit racy, vulgar and crude at times...but far closer to the truth than anything else available. Rather like the deleted CX video....

You are right, I'm sure they would surf away from their "find the cheapest fare from A to B website" to examine the psyche of the Cathay Pacific pilot before they travel with them.
