all of you single fellas living in a 1 bedroom flat paying 65,000 dhs will only get paid 65,000 dhs for live out allowance and the company will keep the difference now, not you.
If that happens (and I'm sure it will) I'll just move to a bigger flat and use the maximum amount they will pay.

Also hotel allowances are going to be vastly cut.
Not the "food vouchers" rumour again is it? Meal allowances have been steadily heading south all the time I've been here. They used to publish the figures in the briefing sheet but then people could work out for themselves when they were being stiffed so this practice ended.

You're right, they cannot face the idea of money going into someone's pocket instead of back into their economy.
