Cathay Pacific Surplus Staff
As a cost saving measure, the 13th month, traditionally paid to Hong Kong based employees, will not be paid this year. Company have now stated that the downturn in business means that there are more staff than they need. Unpaid leave is an idea being floated. Perhaps the disgruntled staff would volunteer for redundancy and leave the company for those who wish to be a part of its recovery.

Notice the silence?
Perhaps more than one person has recognised this as a thinly-veiled attempt at AOA bashing... Two thoughts: If you had posted this on FH forum, you would have had at least two other replies (ib57 and 411A) and, DT and the merry men really have you believing, don't they? Recovery? You surely jest. Even suggesting that CX is in hospital is absurd. |
Given the contempt you feel for the company, Kubota, I assume you will be leaving soon for pastures new.

I think you'll find our Kubota is an "A" scaler doing very nicely, thank you.Its the overtime that leads to 20000+ Quid/month, but no worries, theres no harm in biting the hand that feeds you, is there?
|
Well Jailbird, you must have been inside for more than 7 years if you think anyone does overtime!!! :D

Despite my better judgment, I will respond to your asinine reply, GS.
If I had ever earned the GBP20K a month that the prisoner believes I do, I would have had the $$$ in the bank a long time ago and left the clowns to run the circus. From CX Interim Report 2001 (8 Aug 2001) quote: --------------------------------------------- For the six months ended 30 Jun 2001 Total turnover 15,843,000,000 Operating expenses 14,803,000,000 Operating profit 1,040,000,000 + extras = profit before tax 1,451,000,000 Profit after tax 1,327,000,000 Company Reserves 32,147,000,000 Folks, that's 32 BILLION dollars. In JUNE this year. Easy on the bile, GS, you'll live longer. |
Let me extrapolate forward.
From CX Interim Report 2001 (8 Feb 2002) For the six months ended 31 December 2001 Total turnover 14,000,000,000 Operating expenses 15,500,000,000 Operating profit (1,500,000,000) Profit before tax (1,500,000,000 Company Reserves 30,647,000,000 All this means is that CX has more holding than many others. It may provide more options but does not grant immortality. I will not replay my cracked record other than to say CX will be one of the survivors. Let's just keep the voices down, turn the press off and work with what everyone has in common.Ask for due process and it will be granted. Start with demands and reason goes out the door. As my old man used to say...don't try and teach a pig to sing. Firstly it wastes your time and secondly it only annoys the pig. Not sure what relevance this quote has but I quite like it... Happy listening. |
Kubota
As a matter of interest which VOR do you live near??? To:From:To:From:To:From could cause some confusion I would have thought. Very Confucian really. |
Hey Bubbles, I've been to Portmeiron, visited the dog cemetery even, courtesy of A scales FC Cx travel. Never bit the hand that fed me. Not a thing wrong with A scales. That was the COS on joining and now a remnant of well earned seniority; so what's your beef?
