Angel You have obviously had an easy paper round

At the risk of getting royally shot down I have to ask the following question.

Why in Gods name would any sane expat person leave a well paid secure job to join ARIK (or, for that matter, any airline in Nigeria, or for that matter any Nigerian company)?
Your comments above and my biy highlighted give you your answer. Most of us came here from bankrupt airlines. Sterling, Futura and XL to name a few if the choice is a crap job and no job your spouse does not thank you for your principles when it comes to the rent/mortgage/bills being paid and the children fed.

It is real simple do or die stuff, very very few people are here by choice and we leave the moment we can get something else that pays. You PM me a job and I will start tomorrow, anywhere else in the world. I think I speak for many of my colleagues.
