Roster Publication Date
Cx Publishing rosters on 22nd has got to stop. This has gone on long enough.
Not only do we have to use up leave for quarantine hotels but we don’t get to know far enough in advanced if we can even book hotels due to late roster publication!
Make them stop this blatant transgression of ANO.
Write to the CAD.
enough is enough.

It’s only taken you 2.5 years to notice the delayed rosters? Sounds like another 777 to$$er who’s been sat in hemingways the whole pandemic on full pay and suddenly being asked to work again.
The roster publication date wasn’t much of an issue was it when you had 31 G days to enjoy.

I’m not sure what the relevance of this post is?

Wait... it's 2022 and people are still accepting the insane working conditions at CX? How on earth is anyone still putting up with that circus? And you're blaming other pilots for the fact you cant find another job in this market?
Thanks for the chuckle

What I would describe as terrible though is the quality of life in Hong Kong since the start of COVID, especially for pilots and their families, with no end in sight.
Unless one believes in reincarnation staying in Hong Kong is a huge waste of precious life time and that time won't be coming back.

Speaking of seniority, I was tracking a few names on the bottom of the seniority list from early 2020 and there’s a quite a few that have jumped over 1000 places in that time.
But COS18 is still very competitive

Frank, we all know the situation in HK is terrible. We also all know that the money is less than before. I hence don't get your point. I was talking about the job market, and any other definition than "terrible" is a hard sell in my opinion. Nevertheless, some will leave anyway, and that's great. But, except for Piet of course, senior guys will suffer financially or risk unemployment. You can ask those who joined Longtail for the latter. For some this sacrifice and risk is not acceptable, for whatever reasons. I don't think you intend to belittle those who are in this unpleasant situation, but it could come across as if, wouldn't I know your usually more sensitive remarks in here.

Are you omitting the facts in your defence? You seem to deflect the reality in what’s happening.
You now seem content in defending those individuals who continue to endure COS 18 and HK. I think we know the reasons now, you don’t need to justify why these people live with this suffering.
Fragrant Harbor has become a forum where people will justify the insufferable conditions imposed on them.
It’s time to see what pilots value is outside of HK in different fields. Transferable skills is real, the problem is that pilot egos can’t deal with the removal of the title ‘pilot’
COS 18 and the lifestyle associated with it continue whilst people like you defend it.

I just said the situation is "terrible". To see that as "defending" Hong Kong or "omitting the facts" is absurd.
Additionally, as an adult, not so much as a kaBOY, one must make a decision by evaluating the alternatives, often bound by a number of responsibilities. One day you might understand. Or not.

As for a solution, this is the kind of thing the Union should be organising strike action for. This whole situation of working conditions is the biggest threat to mental health and aviation safety we have ever seen. We should all be standing up to the Gov and CX saying ‘No more of this’.
Now, I think we all know that will never happen as our Union is weak and the company will not support us beyond gentle words. So it’s up to you.
I’m talking to people at work, the stress and worry associated with all of this really makes people unfit to fly in my opinion. So take control and call in sick. Many aren’t earning about MPP anyway, so limit your work.
Stress leave and fatigue sign-off and return-to-works are being assisted by aviation doctors in HK. They very much understand and are more than happy to help, going above and beyond in this regard.
Plenty of people taking some very well earned time away from HK with their family in the UK, Aus and USA just now with long term sick.
I really don’t understand why more people aren’t doing this.
Sitting on here getting angry at one another doesn’t help anything.
