“Where you offered to bring partners along? To have a look around Hong Kong together? See if it's a right fit?”

Lambs are like the poster child for innocence and gentleness. They are totally harmless to other creatures.

“Lambs to the slaughter” is a metaphor to anyone taking advantage or exploiting someone who does not understand what is about to happen to them.

They are also in the food chain of many carnivores, to include humans. And when we take this gentle innocent creature to be butchered for food, it doesn’t fight for it’s life, because it doesn’t grasp what is about to happen to it.

How about for the initial interview? Do you remember the exact questions?

[V1rotateup]

Anyone done the final assessment and heard back ?

[SandyourDay]

All of Question in initial interview is non technical.
Such as :
- why hongkong ?
- why cathay ?
- cathay fleet ?
- route
- expected place to living

Another two questions;

- when is the last time that you had your head examined by a professional?
- have you suffered a blow to the head at any point?

SandyourDay. I'll answer those questions:

1) because you will get to live in one of the most rapidly developing tyrannical dictatorships
2) because you wish to work for one of the worst employers in the industry
3) you have no idea of fleet. they will tell you one thing and you will likely end up on another
4) whatever they decide you do. can change at a minutes notice, and your pay will reduce accordingly if the scheduled trip is less than originally planned
5) you will be able to afford a 400 sq/ft apartment in a questionable part of town
6) my bonus points: you will live slightly better than a Kowloon bus driver
