EK command upgrade policy, FCI renewed, minor changes

[donpizmeov]

Volverine,

I am not trying to justify anything. All I am doing is stating fact. Nothing has really changed command wise since you joined. You made your decision to join knowing that a group of FOs had/were already being shafted for command at that time, and yet you still considered EK the place for you. Surely its no surprise that the shaftings were going to continue, or did you consider yourself above those already here and being shafted and believe it would not happen to you?

I agree this command sham is stupid and unfair but you joined knowing the terms of reference ie: FOs were being shafted command wise. As I have stated it has been happening since at least 2003 and some were shafted from 2001. Welcome to the group.

Volverine, maybe you should have done a little more research before taking the plunge into EK. As Don says, there was plenty of info as to how things were here as early as 2003. I wouldn't wait around here hoping that seniority will be observed or respected. The first lines of the FCI says it all i.e. The company will always do what suits the company, all the rest is for touchy feely meaningless words, as they'll always change to meet the first clause.

In 2001 I was two weeks away from starting my command course when it all changed and waited another 14 months. Listen to the Don or keep your eyes wide shut.
