Vfenext,

I think you are missing the point! Why should any company dictate where and when you can seek alternative employment: it’s the principal that infuriates most people.

Good point. Has anyone consulted with a lawyer to see if what they are doing is legal in the first place?

From the Gulf News, Friday, July 2, 2004, questions answered by some local layers and legal consultants.

Quote:

'The Ban commences from the date the labour card is cancelled. A ban may be imposed by the company even on completion of one year of service. To eliminate a ban, you must seek a no-objection certificate from your existing employer.'

Therefore ultimately it is up to the employer if this is imposed.

Well done TOGA BOY

I for one am happy. At the end of the day, if I work hard, and don't really have much choice, it's my job, but I'm here to work not whinge about nothing, my take home is more than EK. ( yes, I work for GT).Believe it or not, it's true, provided I go over 75 hours. It's not the point really. Money isn't everything. If you don't like it, go elsewhere and " maybe find something better". One thing about GF/GT, if you are loyal, you will have the job for the rest of your flying days. They ( Management) may not say so, which they should, but unless you make a huge "stuff up"they will always back you up. How many people go "sick"for nothing? We ALL know, don't we? The Airline, doesn't matter, but what they want, is people they can rely on, so bitch all you want, they don't have to be the enemy.Nothing and no airline is perfect and never will be. Fact is that we have a job, be grateful for that, so many guys don't. Just remember all of us have a skill that most people don't have, we can fly aeroplanes, management can't, and their livelihood depends on us just as much as ours does on them.
At the end of the day, we all made a choice, if you don't like it, get out, don't complain so much. All of us a so much luckier than millions of people. We at least have the best office, bar none.
