The other point that gets glossed over is that to earn 10 year pay at EK you'd have to....live for at least ten years in Dubai! lol The financial comparisons are tiresome, basically if you can convince yourself that the ME mindset (slavery is ok, greed is good, etc) is your thing, then you're already more than halfway there. As pointed out, you sure as hell will earn whatever you make. If that's all your life means to you...pffft...take a look at most of the EK guys, been here 10 years, look like they've aged 30...
Just remember, if it was so great you wouldn't always have the same old names trotting out to defend it...it wouldn't require it...ask yourself why do they feel the need to justify their little patch of sandy paradise? This was a thread about potential EK payrises and suddenly all the predictable apologist posters are out in force? Funny how that always happens around the time of year when things like pay reviews and bonuses are being assessed!
