Basically Ek has no regard for its FOs, it would rather take on DECs who it doesn't know, has no track record on, has no idea about their psychological profile ( at Ek you have to do psycho tests at joining and every upgrade!!!!!!)and who don't know the company rules and regs and there are a lot of those.
There are a huge number of guys at EK who could easily be upgraded. They have had previous commands on 757/767/plus bigger types!!!!! but have taken the big chance and moved out to the desert ( rightly or wrongly). These guys are not low hours new guys, most have in excess of 7000hrs , years of experience flying in all parts of the world. But EK treats them like dirt once in the company. As I said EK does not take into account your EK track record, the fact they know you, they know your training and that you have some idea about the way EK runs,its rules and regs - that all counts for nothing.
Before you all start saying EK needs Capts to cover its expansion then why has the training dept not been covering this from way back when - its not their fault - it is management and him in charge of Flt Ops what ever his name is - KCT!!!
STITCHED UP LIKE A KIPPER
