gossips
All gossips seem to be true, yes.
In addition: no bonus and no pay-rise this year.
I hope that 2010-11 will be better for all of us.
Nobody has the right to complain here but me: I'm on the 380 from the beginning and I went through hell. They cancelled my upgrade in June and I did not get it since. My badgemates are in the SFS pool with hundreds of sick days. (I'm absolutely sure that nobody looks at the attendance and/or performance records.) And I'm hearing that Emirates wants to get rid of these aircrafts?! No way... all the training, the horrible flights, being observed by SFPs and managers all the time... all for nothing!
And no: off days don't compensate the cancelled upgrade. Anyways, we have RSV days in all rosters (3 off, 3 RSV, 3 off), so you cannot go home. Swapping is almost impossible (because of RSVs and legality) and Bidding simply doesn't work.
Hmm, I will resign! Oooops, the only problem is that I would make 6 times less money at home IF I found a job. Going home is simply NOT an option.
Guys, you don't have any reason to feel bad! Go to the beach and enjoy the sunshine!
