EK September Resignations
68 (sixty eight) guys resigned in September. That was only up until the 25th. I'm all out of superlatives for describing the stupidity and arrogance of these people who claim to manage EK. Lattes all round....
And yet they still think its ok to demote 334 Capts. They are a special lot.

Exactly, Don. I have read and re-read the thread. Im trying to get why I don't get it. I'm not the brightest but surely even those idiots in the bouncy castle can see this is totally wrong.

There is fundamental mathematical problem that seems to be being missed by the bouncy castle.
It takes 3 months to complete the resignation process, assuming you are not owed any leave etc, less if you are.
It takes AT LEAST 9 months to get a new joiner on line, 3 months notice at their old employer and a minimum of 6 months to get on line here, especially bearing in mind there are not enough trainers so newbies are being sent on forced leave etc etc.
The situation behind the drag curve will only get worse as more senior guys throw in the towel as there is simply not the capacity in the system to process the numbers needed.
And yet the beatings continue.......................... I guess it'a a special skill to mismanage so completely?

Longer...
Dare I say it, but I suspect that the time from application to being "on line" is likely to be nearer a calendar year.
Application, intervening period before selection day(s), intervening period before job offer, paperwork checks, start date, line training......
And it definitely only takes a maximum of 3 months to get out....

Has anyone considered that perhaps they will be parking a number of AC and that numerous resignations plays right into that?
By my guess, they will have to park a number of the older 380's just to reduce the bleeding...and the crews along with it.
Publicly resignations looks better than furloughs.
Just food for thought.
