Well I hope PO doesn't leave us hanging here with "the juice".

Well I guess the rest of us should dust off our Wal-Mart gear. Good luck to everyone else out there.

Hard to think of this as good news. I guess some will get the job back but this is merely enough to cover attrition. This means no replacements for the lost planes in the near future. I am glad for those who will get off unemployment, but this is almost bad news for the rest of us deep down the list.

@ Dn_Wisconsin: No I came short. I accepted today the job with one of my previous employer as soon as I saw it. I just didn't want to burn a bridge. At least I know now. Congrats on those who made it back.

I am worried as Normann is. I don't think we are getting new aircrafts in the near future. So I don't see the majority of us coming back anytime soon. Correct me if I am wrong.

It is very expensive to live and work in Singapore. Unless of course you are lucky enough to get hired by, well,... Singapore...

So if you are hired by Singapore it is cheap to live there

Kind of like living in SE Florida is expensive unless you work for NK and live at the Red Carpet Inn I guess that makes sense
