1 unprofessional treatment of pilots by hr and crew control
(What!!!!! Nah, we're all professionals!!! Professional screw ups!)
2 nothing to do except malls and f1 once a year
(Which F1 are you talking about? The one I go to goes on all year long!!!)
3 dangerous drivers especially on weekends
(THANK YOU KIND ABDULLAH FOR SENDING YOUR PEOPLE TO PARTY IN OUR BACKYEARD!!!!)
4 no real international ambitions only regional to undeveloped war zones
(I thought every destination was INTERNATIONAL!!!!)
5 entirely local fleet managers, the mafia, who never listen to the pilots and only concerned about themselves, fat paycheque, and position
(Come on!!! Making 10k bhd/month is not enough!!!! How can they feed their kids with that?!!)
6 shiite sunni thing
(i'm neither, why am I being punished!!!!?????)
7 demonstrations/riots which threaten lives of expats
(Bahrain is a peaceful country, it's the BEST country in the GCC)
8 second rate attitude towards expat pilots
(And I thought WE were from a 1st world country!!!)
9 second rate attitude even toward own local pilots depending if shiite or sunni
(Really, you mean indians are considered local?)
10 noisy shiite villages throughout the night
(Well, i'm in Juffair, that's a Saudi village and it's noisier!)
11 company that consistently looks for ways to screw you not help you
(taking away things without telling you is for your own good, they don't want you to go to jail for selling tickets and making extra money!)
12 local cabbies who still try and rip you off even after their massive pay rise
(Poor guys, I feel soooo sorry for them, just as sorry as I feel about the driving instructors!)
13 idiot brown nosing jordanian ceo whose ideas are as small as the island
(I guess the copy & paste function didn't go that well)
14 focus on cost cutting always on flying crews and not the real culprits, the revenue/commercial/planning departments and ceo
(Nooooo!!!! What will their family eat for dinner if you decrease their salary!??? you guys definitely don't have THEIR best interest at heart! shame on you!!!!)
15.......
anyone else care to add more???? yes, the next 60 years will be even better!!!!!
