I hear the ATC payrise granted to all government workers which included ATC didn't include those not yet on the payrole. Two new guys just arriving have found themselves on a lesser wage than everyone else and have landed in a city with rising rents worse than Sydney.
The cost of rents is now about 60 to 75% higher than what was quoted to them during recruitment and without the payrise, are on a very average package. If you have kids going to school then you may as well stay at home.
DGCAM is paying stuff all given the current living costs and it's only going to get worse as landlords increase rent every year by as little as 15% and as much as 30% and there ain't a thing you can do about it - payup or leave.
All of you going to or thinking about going to Muscat, think twice or ask for a lot more money.:{
