EK: Is EGT leaving EK?
 
Someone who says they are in the know says EGT is on his way out and has submitted his resignation letter.

Has anyone heard anything?

Maybe he is going to become the night manager at the Winchester hotel (Inside joke from a few years ago)

The only place for him is North Korea!

SOPS 11th Mar 2018 19:51

North Korea is the only place that would have him,

The uniform will probably be more to his liking anyway.

Everyone at EK knows who EGT is. Just ask around.
Hint: A not very well liked management type from the DDR.

EG is East German and the T is a well known pejorative term in Anglo Saxon expletive deleted world. Go figure.

Irrespective of how well liked, or otherwise, our managers may, or may not, be, it is alarming to see such a high turnover of expat senior managers in the last year or so.

Flyboy; DDR = Deutsche Democratic Republic = East Germany (EG) pre Nov 1989 when the wall came down.

T, I am sure you can work out for your self.

Must be a new hire not to know EGT

Hope his new joiners interview goes ‘well’ 😉🤣

Must say, I always though the animus toward EGT was out of proportion- sure he has a pretty abrupt demeanor, but in my dealings with him he was always fair and did what he could to help.

Still, he was a very dedicated company man, so if he's leaving it does not arguer well for EK?

My guess... German, Management, B777

Wizofoz 13th Mar 2018 05:23

East.German.T@@T.

Not agreeing with the sentiment, just letting people know.....

OMG ��

Thread or threat?


Must be the new briefing format propaganda.


Threat: EGT Mitigation: He's leaving!

Can’t say Wiz that your experience with him would be described as typical. I had occasion to have a man to man discussion with him over the way he was interacting with the crew when he was augmenting on a ULR, his backdown was precipitous as he is the classic personification of a workplace bully, company man or otherwise, good riddance in my view.
