4 months for 3 hours, yeah that seems about right. Guess you're not in Kansas anymore. With apologies to the people of Kansas....

The article in the link said 4 weeks, not months, but it still sucks for him.

So, perhaps everyone will be more careful about following the rules now?

It could have been worse, they could have caned him.

Singapore doesn’t screw around. Remember the federal case In the 90s about the American kid who was busted spray painting a car or something. He was sentenced to be caned.

He was not only sentenced, he was actually caned, and he was the son of the "company" station manager.

I was told he was on the next plane out, with his family, after the caning.

Start caning us, I can GA-RUN-TEE that'll fix the non-compliant who can't seem to follow simple instructions.

No they don’t, any foreign country for that matter. Just surprised by the number of Fcif’s we get about folks blowing off the rules.

I did see the union email about 4 weeks vice 4 months. My bad!

Just read the Alpa email, my bad.

If you are in a foreign country you are subject to their laws. It doesn’t matter that you think it’s not fair that you can’t leave your room. They don’t care what you think. Hopefully we can be smart enough to realize that by violating a sovereign country’s laws you jeopardize our company’s ability to do business there and can and will cost the company millions of lost revenue which can translate into lost jobs for all of us. If that’s not enough incentive, spending months or years in a foreign jail as your cellmate’s “special” friend should be enough of a disincentive to not screw up. Times suck. Corona virus is overblown. That doesn’t mean you won’t end up in a foreign jail sucking your thumb as your cell mate...use your worst imagination. Unless you are into that sort of thing.

Oh... and you’ll get to pay a big fine too and probably lose your job by costing the company millions. So that AVA trip you’re on when you leave the hotel where you were told you can’t leave....that money is spent on lawyers and a fine. No boat for you. Just a sore...

If you wanna play chicken with the law, and break corona restrictions, do it in Texas. Some lawmaker will go to bat for you and have you cut their hair as well. Foreign country where you don’t have constitutional rights...well that ain’t so smart amigo.

Great shot of him walking out with his uniform pants on, obviously didn’t bring his courtroom suit with him. If I was him I’d had walked out both middle fingers in the air, no mask, Gene Simmons tongue.....I mean, how bad can a caning be?

Way to go representing our company. Thanks.
