The upgrade bond is a disgrace and of course I don't agree with it, but unfortunately this is the Middle East, where management can do whatever they want. Trying to change anything is impossible here, even by making a statement by not singing the bond and being removed from the upgrade course. If you refuse, someone else is waiting to take your place. So why would you risk anything? It's not Europe, USA or Australia where you are protected by laws and unions.
The upgrade bond doesn't affect me, but I fully understand that people will sign it.
I didn't agree with other policies that affected me and even though I tried, I couldn't change anything. I could either accept it or leave. I took the second option. And I do hope that more people will choose the same option, because that might be the only way for management to see how wrong they are.
A result of the, according management non-existent, fear culture.
Thanks for bringing some sanity to this thread...
