Talking about Jump ship Renaldo.. recently 2 cabin crew jump ship together out of Vienna....flight came back with minimum crew!
Sure in the office they are still wondering why...?
What to do, what to do....

QR515 might be a bit naive but I have to say that his principles are noble and respectable. If or if not they should be applied to Qatar Airways is another question....

QR515, ask yourself the question: How good is loyalty when it only comes from one party involved?

QR is probably the only company in the world where you can do a jump-ship, get away with it while being hired by another reputable company. QR's reputation is well known all over the world of aviation...

With regards to the savings: 515 has been here lets asume since 2003 (date he became member of pprune). That means he is coming close to 6 years seniority in QR and he was able to get a lease contract before the huge hike in rental prices. He can very well be living in a 6000QR/month villa!

He claims to be a captain on A330, so his salary easily reaches 57000QR/month (remember, his basic is around 5000QR more than a DEC).
Substract from this 7000 housing, 3000 car, 1000 mobile phone, 6000 monthly living, 2000/month for his club memberships, expenses for wife and kids etc and he might be saving around 25000QR/month!

So it is possible for him, but not possible for a new joining pilot!

QR 515, compare apples with apples please... your situation is different to that from a new joiner , purely based on seniority!

I think your intentions are good and well meant, but please stick to your own adagio: Only tell the truth!

Dear My friends

Working in Qatar Airways as a pilot is like dream for me and i LOVE this airways alot but i have a question :

- I'm Iranian and due to bad advertising against Iran and Iranian,as i know working in foreign countries and especially in Persian Gulf countries is very difficult and they reject the Iranian CV.

Is this true or not ?

I try to working there one day but please guide me how can i do this ???

Thanks

QR 515 is a trustworthy guy and 20K is realistic number provided the conditions described by schneiderthrophy are met. The only problem is it remains 20K throughout years despite rising seniority. Savings are the same as they were 5 years ago despite almost double salary, I'm afraid.
Fafa as far as I'm concerned QR judges your performance and I've flown with some Iranians in QR. I only have good memories about those guys. True professionals and great aviators. My best regards to them.
Don't take it personally take it on the rocks!!!

Fafa,Salam.. i don't see any reason for qatar to reject your iranian passport.
Indeed i wish we could have some more iranians here..
Good luck.

Dear Loc,

It is a sign of the times but your PO box is on the way out. Without any replacement by the way.

Mister Geezer

Does anyone know what the bond is at Qatar??? I am considering using them as a way of building up some Airbus time and then leaving when the industry is back on its feet here in Europe.

Qatari515

BS,

Thanks for looking out for my reputation but I dont think I need your help, thanks!

I did not say you jumped ship, S-P jumped ship!


Shneidertrophy, I do admit, I have been here much longer than most people so my situation indeed is slighthly different. Point taken...

I just can not stand the single-sightedness of most people here when it comes down to thrashing QR. I said it before and I will say it again: QR is not perfect and lots of work remains to be done, but its not the HELL-HOLE so many posters here are trying to make it look like!

I asked myself that Question of yours many times mate, and every time again I come to the same conclusion. I will stick to my principles and I will NOT lower myself to the below-the belt techniques QR is using. So I will stay true to what I believe in and Jumping ship is just not part of my beliefs!

Ronaldo 330, most of the things you are saying is true, especially regarding the company! Bravo!
Dont agree with your personal remarks though, but thats my prerogative isnt it?

Regarding resignation":
Your salary, when you resign, is only frozen in case you have outstanding debts with the bank. Your credit cards will be stopped 45 days before your last day of work. You can leave the country as long as you have a multiple exit permit. Just book your ID 90 tickets before you submit your letter!

Where I come from has nothing to do with all this but all these practices where as strange and unacceptable to me as they are to you! But once you know your way around these dark-aged practices it is NOT difficult to fool the system!

JungleJett

So you DO fool the system......a rather immoral attitude...tss tsss tssss I am very disappointed in you 515....

Oh and before you write a looooong essai on morality or whatever....it's a joke!

Qatari515

Maybe your obviously limited inteligence does not allow you to see the difference between an act like jumping ship (hereby cheating a company that IS still providing a living for you and your family/hereby breaching your contract and braking the law,

and something like fooling the system by just being smarter without damaging yourself or anybody else and keeping your obligations at the same time!...

Sad for you!

everybody is responsible for his own actions in life...Do whatever you want, I am in no position to tell anybody else what/what not to do!

But "what goes around comes around" is still very much valid in our little professional environment!

Mr Ho

Is tru what go round come round. You and Ho proof catamite king reward all good pilot

Why not yu other not do as told?

Rocco Stiffreddy

Gottcha, so who is the Catamite? Hopefully not jube FOs...

loc22550

??Qatari 515,

Please keep your lesson of loyalty for yourself, and instead of blaming the people who jumpship (telling it's not legal, or they are "braking" the law...), lets ask a clever question: WHY do people "jumpship".....???
Sure most of them they wouldn't never have done such a think in a "normal" circumstance.

LOC.

Mr Ho

Goat Airway is Graet King Katamite own airine. He graet man, known all thing, known how fly too, he like Don Trump of dessert. All luv Katamite King for fair judge and good reward for do good thing

Qatari515

LOC,

I have probably more reasons to be upset with QR than anyone else on this forum! A low seniority number means more years of abuse as well you know. We all have our reasons, we all have been lied to...

So please, dont tell me what or what not to write here!

Its the old story of the two buckets. One is filling up with cash, the other one is filling up with ****. As soon as one bucket spills over, one has to leave!

I thought about leaving many times in the past...But NEVER EVER I considered jumping ship mate!

But hey, I give up with this tread! I am not interested in a personal pissing contest so thats it for me!

I wish you guys all the best and I hope you find that greener grass on the other side!



Answer: because the **** underneath its feeding on!

Lulu qatar

Qatari515 if you get hit in face on street for no reason do you fight back or you step back and complain to police ? ?
its a same sh... t with QA if they give you sh...t you give them sh...t by jumps ship and best way is do it when outstation so no F/o to operate back .

dear Qatari515,
happy eid al fitri, as i mention to you before, i was 5 years with QR, i was joining QR at 2002 ( beginning '03), my staff number start with 4, if you already there at those time, i'm sure you know that there is no malaysian at that time in QR, i'm sure you do remember we are able to send text msg (SMS) via our mobile phone at july '03, and there's only 4 internet cafe in Doha at that time. Please don't judge people's skill and ability from whre they are coming from ( either company or nationality ), i have no connection with Malaysian mafia that you mention, its just Abu dhabi is close to home for me (just 6 hours flight to home instead 11 hour from KL )even its far for my indonesian wife, buts she's ok. In AA there are a lot of ex Qr pilots now ( 13 pilots ), three of them now even a TRI, and flying both A 330 and 320. Before i left, 9 Qr pilots, 2EY, and 1 Auh amiri pilot are in progress to join AA. Have a nice wonderful day in Qatar..emmm i mean Doha..ehhmmm...

Rocco Stiffreddy

I've been reading through a lot of the posted threads and I'm wondering if anyone can shed some light on the following;
1. Why is CEO Akbar Baker so unpopular on this forum? (Is he evil)?
2. Why is Doha Radar so F$*ked up?
3. Are any of your wives happy living in Qatar? (I know many aren't).
4. Is there a reasonable future for a Jube FO at QA? Seems like QA is where pilots go to die, like an elephant graveyard...

Any input would be great as for me QA is about to go on the backburner...
