CX and Girlfriends, Wives, etc.
Hi all,
Would like to know what the go is with bringing girlfriends to HK. Been reading that its hard for them to obtain working visas.
So what do your wives or GF's do all day if they dont work? Do they go bored outta their brains, get crazy, then eventually leave you there, or, do you have some arrangement where you can take them on trips with you every so often when you work.(I am aware that everyones reaction is different to living in Hong Kong.)
Is it possible to commute home every month? Been reading about the rostering for S/O -around 15--20 days off a month, but surely that includes overnights as well?
Just curious as to how you can survive in this industry and still have a partner?????????????
What arrangement(s) do you have with your partner?

Wives/Girlfriends
The best advice I can give you is to ensure your girlfriends and your wife never meet. This is very important and sometimes difficult to ensure but it will make your time in the Harbour much less stressful and less expensive.

probably best to buy a new girlfriend every night you want one !!! that way you don't get bored with the same old girlfriend or have to listen to her whinge and bitch, or want you to do stupid stuff like shopping etc etc............Of course important stuff like going out with your mates and having a good time takes precedence and generally 2 or 3 three girlfriends a week is sufficient so it actually quite cost effective providing you don't do anything stupid like fall in love with/marry one!!!
