If you check the other boards, there's a reason why...quick summary:

- Chief Pilot's an arse
- Work rules directly related to the company mood at that moment
- if you're not Taiwanese, you'll never make Capt.
- as a westerner, you've been hired to keep the local Capt's out of trouble and babysit them.

Not sure the validity of the above, but the off board evidence seems to support it.
