Q.r: Has Bob Gates Been Fired?
Can someone please confirm if the very popular, fantasticly professional, dedicated cabin-crew manager (yes, I am been sarcastic) Mr. Gates himself been terminated? Don't know if that's good news or bad news because one dummy (Saliya) will probably end up as cc manager - boy, i feel so sorry for the cc if this is true. Comments please...........

Well, apparently it's true that bob's out......what a shame!!!!!!Also, the puppet Saliya is in as cc Manager, morale will drop even further now, saliya is two faced and anyone reading this post BEWARE, he'll backstab you no matter what you think of him, whatever you do do not put any trust in him because he simply cannot be trusted - he's Al Bakers "YES" man (if you can call him a man). He's worse than a snake, he's evil and I pity my dear colleagues in QR ......keep smiling crew and stay well away from him no matter what.

Bob has lasted longer than expected as far as I am concerned. Ah well, he has plenty more time to play Golf now!
The seriously bad news is that Saliya will now be back in the hot seat, so long as he doesn't slide off it with that slimy skin of his!!
Quite correct in mentioning his backstabbing. Too many crew think he is very approachable and helpful and do not realise he is actually s******g on them right in front of their eyes.
If you ever prove him wrong, (and I did once!) he will never admit it and in fact just try to cause more grief for you.
This is bad, and extremely sad, news for the devoted at QR.
Still one down and all that eh?

"HIGHER THEY GO,HARDER THEY FALL"
Lets keep the fingers crossed,until snakes "PAY DAY",when all of us can breath!
* As for Bob,I feel sorry for him.although he was never the perfect manager,there was also no harm from him.

He actually told me a few days before I left that he was just trying to stay as long as possible to make some money then leave! But he didn't know how long he would last one way or another!
Fore!

Bob Gates was a waste of time and money - he had the P/S doing everything for him, the usual day-to-day terminations was done by the Snake, the Snake always reports back to Akbar (who believes EVERYTHING he says)......I've heard that Saliya is acting cc manager (how many people in various departments have been "acting" this or that?)
Bob has gone and he won't be missed - the biggest nightmare now is the evil SNAKE himself........fate will take action and he will also fall flat on his face too

Why are my comments inane, Jet? Just to re-clarify what I meant, I have been reading for years now on Pprune about how much the cabin crew has suffered under the "regime". Yes, I admit that I have been critical of Bob in the past. I hold my hands up to that, and hence deserve your label as a hyprocrite.
However, I just heard a couple of days ago about the way that Bob was treated in the latter days and the real reason why he was made to go, and I find that he has simply been treated as shoddily as some of his cabin crew have been over the years.
i.e. regardless of an individuals level (i.e. position or seniority or pecking order...), when it comes to "termination", the same terrible principles are applied (from the tea boy, all the way up to MD).
Have I explained myself satisfactorily, or is further amplification needed?

A300Man, "as some of his cabin crew have been over the years", good to see that at least you admit not all cabin crew are treated bad at QR.
ayomide, back in Qatar soon!

ayomide, you were the disbliever! i don't recall anyone saying that all of the Cabin Crew were treated badly!
all depends on if your face fits to be honest.
good example and i hope that at least A300 Man will know the people i am talking about here:
one of the old school RM has just be accepted back into the fold. she is a friend of mine and will be the first to admit that her record was by no means perfect and she had various "reprimands" of sorts, but she worked hard. another ex crew CL, who is a friend of mine and of RM, re applied but was refused...she had worked her way up the ladder, was popular, kept her nose clean and resigned quietly...quite simply her face didn't fit...she was treated quite differently when she resigned unlike the aforementioned, who has now been accepted back.
and before you begin to swing your handbag again ayomide, i am simply giving an example of the kind of thing that DOES go on.
...and before you question my sources...a phonecall from CL herself to my home!
A300 Man's comments about Bob Gates, well, are correct! everybody suffers, same as Sooty when he left!
there are many happy crew and staff at QR and that's great, but I believe that they are in the minority.

I hope Saliya the Snake is reading this because the dirties about him (yes there are more to come) will appear on this site...
The vast majority of crew are very unhappy with QR, can't understand why anyone would want to go back there.
Bob Gates actually told certain colleagues of mine that they should apply to B.A and that was a couple of years ago.
Here in europe QR has an appalling reputatiion amongst cc and f/deck crew, not half as bad as the puppet, Saliya.

homesick rae,
I am not swinging my handbag, just expressing my thoughts as you all are! I could at least give one name of a person who says all crew at QR are miserable.
If it all depends on the face, I guess my face fitted their taste.

Isn't there a song: "There she goes/ there she goes again..."
I don't think the line about face fitting is in there though, but OBVIOUSLY hers does!!
I reckon BG is supping a VB and enjoying a few rounds on the Royal Melbourne as we speak!
