Hi Guys,
I've been working in the Gulf for the last 3 years (BAH) and my family and I enjoy living here. But. . . the experience SASOMANIAN has had is very familiar to me too. Although in another company
the same nasty habit of promissing one thing and then doing another is a cultural problem here. Lying is allowed and contracts are pieces of paper like any other. If you are lucky there are some (western) expats at management positions that DO keep their promises, but don't expect anything from the locals. Although I must say GF is not as bad as Oman Air (as described) but still pay alot of attention. Your rights here are very different from what you're used to back home.
