I think there is a point or two that you may have missed

Speedbrake and others make some valid points.

However, it is a fact that training take a percentage of the 'choice' flights which, very obviously, reduces what's left for us mere mortals.
It's also a fact that you do less night flying (turnarounds), know your life some time ahead of the 'line' and take more money home.

You all volunteered for training, happy to take the money so presumably you were happy to take the crap, sorry.... conditions, that go with the job.

Being the superbly trained specimens that you are, you DIDN'T really expect to get something for nothing........ did you?

So, if you're not happy with the level of crap that is now being offered.....
LEAVE.

It's really not that difficult. Dubai, Emirates and the training department all have a shelf life. When the time comes, dump them or it., individually or collectively.

Every time I think about going into training, I just look at my rosters and for 3 or 4 out of 5 months, it just ain't worth it.

Peace of mind, lower stress and it only costs AED 3,000 per month
