Ruserious: I wish I could give more evidence at the moment but please understand that the cases are still going on. But I promise that lots of popcorn and caramel will be necessary once the curtain falls.
Chances are high that these scandals will also hit the media very soon.
Jumeirah James: your info seems to be very accurate.
Hopefully AAR will be next on the fireing list together with CP and DCP Airbus, they are also involved in these serious issues and having created huge damage to the company and brand.
What can be said for now is that TCAS and his Team (Fleet, Training, Clinic, HR) messed up big time several things and those scandals are now under investigation by the court. Stay tuned for more..

IMHO there is no value in investigating or prosecuting these characters. Worst case they will even play victim. EK doesn't need any more bad publicity.

Confiscating their bank accounts along with a public perp walk to an LCC to KBL/EBL with £50 in their pocket is the best way to deal with these characters.

I'd be happy with ritualistic public shaming and some heart-felt admissions of guilt in the conspiracy to **** me around for years. Or stoning. Stoning I like the sound of. A lot.

I've always believed in karma and justice. Especially in justice because it's so logical that you will reap what you sow. HR is one of the most corrupt departments in EK.

Hope some of the fired ones were threatened with prison and some of them will end up there.

A comment from my blog:

Just a small update from the costa club HQ – this week further cuts were made to HR as more staff in particular HR Recruitment team were let go. Some were given options off finding other positions within Ek but sadly there isn’t any – I mean recrtuiement team is going as there is no recruiting going on. There is a clear hiring freeze which they keep denying yet was even published in local papers back in July. The trimming will continue but the rest of the other parts of Ek don’t know when. With so much rumor and unreliable staff the new man who will make this airline great again is keeping quiet. Good for him – I just hope he goes after the managers that really need the cleaning and all their favouritism people that they keep. Those cheaters need to go

Interesting, recruiting(cheerleaders) supposed to be the best performers in the company. I think they are waiting on peak season to be over to take any drastic measures.

There are always risks associated when a third world country investigates & prosecutes foreigners even if they are at fault. Media will spin these as false allegations and show trials. Foreign office will get involved in this mess. Clean and less traumatic way is to escort them out of country with empty pockets. Mafia Duo do this all the time with CCs and others, administer their own medicine.

@notapilot

Recruiters cannot be the best performers in the company which has so many inadequate, incapable and wasta managers and staff.

In respect of my previous employer, and their attitudes to their hard working frontline staff, particularly directed at those Costa dwellers that are now scurrying about like headless chickens, I present this visual metaphor.

An update:

So we start the weekend from Costa Club HQ
HR Recruitment have been handed notices as mentioned above. It isn’t in a bad way – what they are saying is that jobs that are “not needed or required” is now being removed. The minions are getting removed. Some managers are getting removed too but most seems in the 20+ year range. The British mafia and their incompetent minions still remain – shocking – people who don’t have degrees in the job they hold, uneducated is the correct word still remain. Would not be surprised if they soon say that I have ridden a plane meaning I can also be a pilot! Anyways maybe Mr Meuller will soon figure out that too and he will make the change. But the HR Recruitment team that are leaving are given proper goodbyes – they are being given severance and asked to leave in dignity – that is nice
But today another batch has also been asked to leave. Learning and development or popularly known as L&D – this includes a grade 10 and some minions. They have been given 2 months just to ensure they can recoup as much money in costa coffee to bring back into their coffers. Shockingly this removal and cleanup work is being handled by none other than the wife of a certain dsvp of a prominent department at EK called FO. We will simply say her initial is JD and she is senior grade 10 at L&D. And so the favoritism and nepotism continues
So HR for the past few months. Now L&D – matter of time till the proper clean up commences. Sadly the creators of the problem will still stay on and the cycle will commence again. No fresh faces and no proper removal of the corrupt ones- as I read here above the cockroaches never die. One accident in a year. Another accident for the baby airline flydubai. Loss of customers everywhere. Empty flights yet not fixing the real cause. Oh did I mention that skywards team with hardly any customers to report to added numerous new grade 9s recently. The story gets funnier or will Mr Mueller actually fix this mess???????
Someone save this airline please else it’s going to make a great thesis for business majors to discuss the fall of Rome in the 21st century of businesses……

When I am no longer an employee of this company in the not too distant future, guess how many times I will come back to this board to see how my former employer is fairing? Zero. I won't start a blog. I won't keep coming back here like a fly to poo. The past will be in the past. If it already is your past...move the everliving f@#! on!!! How long have you been gone from here? (rhetorical question) Yet, you act as if you're on the front lines. Get over it. Take up a new hobby. No one gives a rat's arse about your blog or your updates. Shoo fly, shoo!!!

It's not just AAR and his cronies. If there are a large number of redundancies, a minimum of half of them need to be locals. The Costa crowd are overwhelmingly wearing local dress whenever I've been in there. If there is a large scale reduction of people who actually do some work, any good will quickly come undone.
