not to insult CX pilots but I think a lot of you are itching to tell the world your pains.

Patience is a virtue, good luck to you all!

:D :D :D :D :D

With the current dispute with most pilots being the best paid and living in a"guest" country, why don't you just do the job or leave?. Managers should be able to report to the world that some of these people maybe should never work for an airline if this is there way of working and caring for the people they carry.I would say if they were not being paid or wage cuts to maybe 50% of what they have, maybe but to earn for a Captain over $1050000 HK$ is a lot of money.

We Pilots are in this for the long run. We have career's, not jobs. We move families and hopes and dreams to where we think and hope we will build good careers. To say, if you don't like it leave is simplistic to say the least for just that reason. Investment in the company. "Sweat Equity" if you will. Which is why there is such a back-lash against the company when they pull this kind of stunt.

I don't know how a Company working in today's Global Marketplace can keep the management practices of an Imperialistic time. Colonialism is dead. The model of WestJet,SouthWest, Continental and GE work. The results prove it.

Cathay is making beef buckets full of money now, just imagine how much they could make with a happy contented work force...

A quick question to CX guys before you leave.

This is not a trick question and do not answer if you feel it will harm your relationship with the AOA.

Currently, what is your number ONE objective in this situation?
Many says rostering, but many is about pay. Which is it that the AOA take priority to fight for?

Thx :D :D :D

At then end of the day, name calling, threats, inuendo's aside the truth is the last bastion of truly professional expat careers is sliding down the porcelain bowl into oblivion...at least they're going down kicking and screaming...it's gone from careers to jobs...like so many other places...glad I got a good one.. :) :) :)

Hemorroid encrusted one you speak so eloquently... Glad you enjoy your position, all that matter's is yourself eh?

You speak of the true expat's. What of the "brotherhood" of expats working together for the common good of the profession and living standards overseas? Perhaps you have it good and wish not to rock the boat... How long until your boat is rocked for you? Hmmmm?

Without a united front I would think that you would fear that you could be next?

A point to ponder?
