I think you need to stop watching Loy Machedo on YouTube.
The problem that new guys will face realistically is how the rosters are managed.
Rostering of a ULR after a block of days off, so you can’t travel home, because you need to be acclimatised. This makes commuting very difficult.
Rostering of your recurrent training the day after your leave. So you spend your whole leave worrying about how your sim.
A bidding tool that, let’s be honest, doesn’t work.
Somehow, you get trapped on a certain destination or direction.
Biding for the last five days of a month and the first five of the next, in your second and top bid month, get it, and have a manually inserted flight dropped in.
Destroying your bid.
Off base notification, every time you leave Dubai you have to tell them where you are and for how long and how to contact you.
These things start to add up and they happen continuously.
And of course the fear culture. Which they tell us doesn’t exist.
Eyes open. You will face trainers that shouldn’t be allowed in training. You will be treated like you never saw an airplane before. There are one or two actual trainers, but unfortunately the vast majority of them will have you walking away from a flight saying wtf was that all about.
