I agree with Kippa. Don't get me wrong, from what I've read on here, Emirates truly does sound like an awful awful airline to work for. You have good reason to be upset. But the proglem is that pilot conditions all around the world are crumbling, it's not just happening in the ME. Go have a look at the threads in Fragrant Harbour and read about the guys at Cathay who are leaving in droves just like they are at EK.
I live in one of the most expensive cities in the world, earn less than what I used to earn selling TVs, work right on the legal limit every month, am perpetually fatigued and see bullying and harassment by management every day. There is really nothing about my job that I would miss if I left it.
So why wouldn't I go to Emirates for a few years where I'll be treated just as badly, work just as hard but get paid far better?
