Basically over the years I observed only the money numbers change in Gulf based Airlines.
The problems remain the same... there is no intention or inclination or pressure on or for management to even attempt to fix any problem staff related.
If you are a bachelor with nobody expecting a slice of your paycheck back home you can save a serious wad of money over the years... that is if you decide to live as cheaply as possible and try hard to invest your excess cash each month.
Married, plus wife not working...plus a few kids...divorce...new wife...kiss your sorry tail goodbye...you will then have to fly till you drop...and thus compromised be forced keep your mouth shut...or worse still... blow your brains out and join the management team!
