I really doubt that I have more money than sense (I wish I could...) and I'm so sorry you are not satisfied in Etihad, while I'm struggling to move over there for familial reasons, and still didn't find a place to work...

By the way, the ignorant lizard speaks some Arabic, and here is the correct spelling: إن شاء ال

Sissy you need to aim a bit lower and perhaps you might get a job. Your 3000 hours only on turboprop is not going to do it for any of the major carriers in the Gulf. Just take a look and see what the requirements are before your continue yapping at a senseless rate. When it is that you have the minimum requirement and you have been applying for sometime without any success then you have something to talk about. But for the time being why don't you try some other carrier like Jazeera Airways or some outfit in Turkey to gain your experience. You think just because the main carriers in the Middle East are short of pilots and it has been brought to their attention of the serious deficit that they will face in the near future that they will change their hiring policy to suit you? Yes I know that you would love to fly with Etihad but your desperate attempts of trying to show us all that you would fly without compensation is just an indication that you're still in the little league. When you have made it to the big league and you still want to argue your point on exchange rate protection and terms and conditions, people, and when I say this I mean one or two, may actually listen to you. But for the time being stop the whining and put your energy into a good cv for some other jet operator that will hire you. Bye Bye.

I say again, I'm not whinning for me, it's a 'general term' and 'general whinning' for and on behalf of the beliefs of my fellow colleagues...

The majority of us, say 70% at Ey, are quite happy, just a little ironing out is required..

Now, you wanna a job? pm me or email me [email protected] your CV we'll see what we can do..

Poison, thanks for the advice, but I guess you misunderstand me. I'm not whining to join Etihad, I know what my experience can get me and what it can't. When I say I applied, it doesn't mean majors... I know what I can aim at. I was just commenting some points regarding UAE international laborers. No need to be in Etihad to make such comments...

Damn poison, you were a little rough on the kid don't you think? I don't think any of us on this forum were not like him at some early point in our flying careers. I know that when I began many many moon ago that I was willing in my heart to fly for free just to get the job and be able to fly. Well it never happend and I had to work and claw my way thru just as the majority of us have had to do.

Sissy is excited and wants to fly jets and be close to family all the while. Isn't that what we all wanted/ still want? I applied to Etihad as well and my times far exceed the posted mins in fact my time in type alone exceeds that of the min requested many times over. I do think that the carrier could use a full time person to go over the CV's and get caught up on all thoses who are waiting in line.

Sissy will get his turn soon and I will bet he too will be able to complain with the best of us. This career choice ain't perfect but damn is't fun sometimes

WHAT NEXT? Well, interesting enough the article I read in the ABTN Business Travel News & Advice with a special note on the last paragraph I highlighted:
Airline changes at Manchester (City) and Chelsea
The takeover of Manchester City Football Club by the Abu Dhabi United Group, with the backing of the Emirates Royal family, could easily become a double whammy for their English Premier League rivals Chelsea. Manchester’s second club (even the most diehard City fan must agree that double trophy winners United are number one at the present time) has beaten Chelsea to the signing of Brazilian forward Robinho from Real Madrid. The support of Etihad might go in time also.
Last September Etihad, Abu Dhabi based, signed a three-year deal with the west London club to be a platinum sponsor and official international airline partner, said to be worth seven figures. With new patriarchs how this is viewed from the Palaces bordering the Arabian Gulf remains to be seen but contracts in the murky world of football do not really mean a lot. Currently Chelsea’s shirt sponsor is Samsun and likely to stay that way.
And guess who has been the focus of Chelsea’s coaching of children in Abu Dhabi? Shaun Wright-Phillips transferred back from Chelsea to City the day before the ownership deal.
Among the highlights of the partnership is the extensive Etihad branding at Stamford Bridge for Barclays’ Premier League, FA Cup and Carling Cup matches. The airline also features regularly in match day programmes and other Chelsea publications. What would happen if Etihad became the shirt sponsors of City?
As things stand Thomas Cook is the upfront backer of Manchester City, until the end of the current season. Thomas Cook, the airline, does not compete with Etihad and the tour company offers neighbouring Dubai as a holiday destination. Etihad flies daily from Manchester to Abu Dhabi, with connections to points east, using a two class Airbus 330
Etihad chief executive Australian James Hogan is known to be a keen Chelsea fan. However vice president public affairs, Iain Burns, ex-British Airways, is a lifetime supporter of Manchester City.
Is this getting to a point where James and Iain can just joke on "their personal likes and dislikes"? Interesting.

we all joined a company in a country that is disregarding human rights and treats his workers like sh.t. and give them 500 aed/month.
Either they need you and take good care of you, or we need them because we want to fly big jets, upgrade etc.... and they don't give a sh.t about us. You signed a contract and that's it.
Not happy anymore ? Door is wide opened

JH isn't a football fan. He likes rugby union and Aussie rules. However, his sons who were brought up in the UK are Man U and Liverpool fans
