I thought that Etehad was a good company and I know of many ppl working for othe ME airlines in the rejon who went to work for them. Are you sure it is not a rumor? by law they can not just fire you like that for no apparant reason?! I know in the gulf you do not have job security, that is true and that money will buy them whoever they want as they know we are all scrounging for money!!.....I would like to know a bit more about what happened actually from Etehad. I will try to call someone there and enquire about this rumour.
Cheers
