No, 120feet.
It's pretty much the naked truth.
I know not one of the contributors of another thread (where they complain about their application is not duly considered) will believe you. At least not now.
But it helps the undecided.
One thing is for sure: Many remain stuck, wether they like it or not, wether they had anticipated or not, they came here with kids and they have to stay. Unless they can afford to lose a big chunk of money. Emirates knows and counts on it, otherwise the attrition would be dramatically higher. So the whole question of leaving and the ominous "if you don't like it, leave" is very much futile.
If you come, make the best of it, if in slightest doubt, don't come. The way back is exponentially more difficult.
