You bring some good points to the forum,especially the fact that out of the four of you,3 were offered employment but non took it! That says quite a lot re.either Emirates package or ,as you say,that this Company isn't for everyone.In some ways,having the decision taken from you can be the easy way out,although it may not seem it at the time.You were obviously disappointed,like any of us would be,but it's perhaps worked out better for you now that you've jumped through the B.A hoops instead.I wish you well in your new Airline....i can think of a lot worse.Which,Brings me back to Emirates.Showing married couples around U/P Towers is NOT a good idea,especially as far as i'm aware,that only single F/O's are there and the married guys are elswhere.With over 500 Cabin Crew,it's not known as Unlimited Pu
sy for nothing!Not a good start to impress the wife.Villas are available for guys with families and some single f/o's are now being given villas as well but it will depend on availability.My Major concern,however,is that we are starting to lose too many people after job offers and it's rumoured that some 3-6 year Captains are about to jump ship.Either the package will be improved to attract and keep the guys,or the standards will slip to ensure their profits each year.I just hope it's not the latter!
This place is still good,but it's not the golden egg it maybe once was.It's not for everyone but there are many here who wouldn't go anywhere else.Think long and hard but once you make the decision,don't look back.Life's too short !
