Getting away from CX
 

Now that the flood gates have opened, I wanted to get away from these people too. The check and training department just are never going to change. What a bunch of jerkoffs these people are. Now we are going to get an aircraft where a lot of the functions don't work? You're kidding right? We talk about threats and the biggest threat is our own managment/fleet office.

So Korean is now offering 20,000$ USD a month. Is it better, well the money sure is! The AOA has told the memebership that we got a raise, that is a joke.

Guys are leaving in droves now and I am starting to realise you are better leaving than staying. This place stinks.:mad:

Yeah Yeah
 

Saturn, here we go again. I've heard this for the many years I've been in the company and you know what - few ever seem to go. This is so very unfortunate because an inability to crew the aircraft parked on the ramp is the only driver that will ever lead to a meaningful change in remuneration and, possibly, attitude.

So I'll do my bit to help:

RESIGN RESIGN RESIGN RESIGN. Get the f...ck out of here and find Nirvana

Just resign mate and don't look back.
Don't be bothered anymore about the wankers up on whatever floor it is (forgot).
There is just to much wanking and to little fun.
Most of us became pilots because we wanted to fly aeroplanes and have fun doing so. I had very little fun "flying" aeroplanes in CX (of course most of the time was as a sandwich officer - which I suppose is not really flying anyways:O)
Whatever lifestyle you want and what's important too you - decide from that. Don't let money rule your world - there is more to life than that - money.

There are a lot of good blokes on the F/D in CX as well - lets not forget that - But a fun, enjoyable place to work - forget it! :}

We keep hearing Guys are leaving in droves....How many are really leaving...unless is 10% to 20% of pilot force, I really don't think the company would care....its sad cause you guys are great pilot group....all the best.

I have personally heard of 3 who have left in the last 2-3 months. I am sure there have probably been more but "droves" it isn't!

Cuz ...

CX are happy with their "Henchman" every fleet has two complete lunatics that should be locked up for bipolar aggression asshole disorder ..

In a conversation I had with "NR" a long time ago .. he said they can't do anything until the pilots are willing to put it in writing ..

If you encounter one of these "tossers" put every little detail down and submit it to the training department.

Or .. embrace some type of social media campaign :E

Great advice maybe you should take it yourself:ok:21 of your last 25 posts have been on the Fragrant Harbour forum and when did you leave again? Hilarious:D:D:D Keep it up:ok:

The Mess aka The Joker :}

Me, I'm in F.H. having a wander around from time to time to see whats cooking in the kitchen of Cathay Pathetic Airways.. And you are right - it is hilarious to spectate.. I'm lovin' it..
In no other PPrune forum is there so much talk and so little action than F.H.

A guy needs a little encouragement and all you do, The Mess, is waste his time. No wonder you hardly have any friends buddy. No wonder. :}

G Days
 

So, STOP helping them out. Don't work G days. Don't volunteer for training. It ain't rocket science people! :ugh:

. . . leave and find utopia? :{

Korean is offering $20000 a month ?? Since when?

KE's five major contract agencies (Rishworth, Parc, Cambridge, GAP & Euro Pacific Aviation) have all removed the T&Cs and payscales from their websites. What they're offering now is anyone's guess.

• Euro Pacific Aviation
• Rishworth Aviation
• Global Airline Pilots (GAP) Aviation
• Cambridge Communications Ltd (CCL)
• Parc Aviation

But like Emirates; KE will be taking delivery of quite a few new aircraft over the next few years, so unless they really are offering $20,000 USD p/month it will be interesting to see where all the new pilots come from.

KA is the code for Dragonair. KE is the code for Korean Airlines. Using KA incorrectly will cause some confusion on this forum!

No doubt.
However, it might not make a difference, as 'many' (it appears anyway) desire to run away from CX.
The bed of roses ain't what is used to be, apparently.:rolleyes:

You're right, I just edited the post. Thank you.

BA about to hire 20-30 DEPs onto the 744 if you're after a UK base you'd be nuts not to go for it.

I've heard of DEC, DEFO, DESO but what is DEP?
DEP = Direct Entry Peanuts, Direct Entry Purser, Direct Entry Pole Dancer, Direct Entry Podiatrist, Direct Entry Pensioners or Direct Entry Prostitute :}

A good question posed by Sand Man. In my humble opinion, as this is an aviation forum, it's possible that the P in DEP is for pilot.

Prostitute was a good guess though - frequently synonymous to pilot.

As opposed to CEPs... Circuitous Entry Pilots
