Terms
3 percent didn't happen this year! No pay increase. You will now need to pay money towards your utility bill. The cost of living here has gone up immensely. Inflation is onits way up.
At this time of year the shops tend to put up their prices when most families go home...probably so you don't notice is so much when you get back.
The shops in the malls have put their prices up to counteract the fewer shoppers spending. Why should they lose out because of a credit crunch???!!**
90 hours is a lot of hours and quite a few people are close to that each month. & fatigued.
Lots of night flying. A roster bidding system that is largely uncontrollable.
If you are offered the Boeing maybe it's worth it for the rating and the time. As for the Airbus stay where you are (unless it's the A380 where you won't make money because you won't be flying much).
The contract is not worth the paper it's written on. You will be an expat and treated as such.
