Times are tough and desperate times call for desperate measures.
Perhaps it's time Ek gets more serious with it's cost cutting.
Instead of p1ssing everyone off by pinching pennies and keeping it's staff in jobs maybe it's time for retrenchments.
Win win for all, especially all those moaners on PP who can't seem to locate their berries and make a decision for themselves. Better still, start of with voluntary retrenchments, all the whiners not happy can grow a set and bugger off and everyone else willing to carry on during the current tough times can do so minus all the girlie shrieks.

Hey F@cknose or whatever you fancy calling yourself.
Nice suggestion, except you are missing the point that this thread is not about leaving or staying. It is an opinion poll. Out of 2000 pilots over 500 girlies voted as per your defination. Maybe it is a girlie airline and you dont belong here.So p1ss off.

reality check
Farknose seems to have more grasp of current economic reality than most. If u disagree... send your CV to BA and wait for a reply !!!! (or AA or UA or LH or DL or VS or QF.... the list goes on and on).

I realise it's an opinion poll, I cast my vote. Mind you had trouble finding the No 1 option.
The rest was just a little advise on how some at EK can deal with their EK induced stress levelsbugger off elsewhere.
Poor little petals...now tuck your blouse back into your skirt and warm up that larynx.

Look in the mirror
It's been proven, those who think they are good are usually below average. Those who are not stressed in this company have obviously no clue. Same rule as above. Studies show that the first sign of a stressed person is one that denies been stressed. Been around long enough to spot that we are in a very stressful environment. Just read the tone of the last company weekly report about the logbook note...

By your response i can really sense that you are obviously not stressed and very open minded. Your tolerance and patience to other's opinion is remarkable. I should seek help from you maybe. With your great experience and knowledge spending so much time on this forum with over a 1000 posts shows me that you must have a very interesting life experience outside the virtual life of pprune. You must know better then many about seeking help I'm convinced. 
Read my post again, i talked about the tone of the note... NOT the note itself. But then again why do i bother

ekpilot - obviously maths isn't your thing amigo. 1091 posts in NINE years is hardly overkill. 0.33 posts per day in fact and certainly not all on ME forum
Consider the tone about the techlog - obviously it gets frustrating reminding people again again about the same thing, especially when you're not using your native language so yes, I guess I'm tolerant of that... Really - why let it bother you??
Just relax man - have a jam sandwich

Was not too stressed before. But rosters getting harder and harder.
Not so much the hours but the way the rosters are put together. Back home at 2 in the morning, up the following day at 05:00. Repeatedly.
Its killing me. Serious sleep problems and continually tired. Go figure.
