ATSU; chip-on-the-shoulder-alert!!
Ahhh, the message I gleaned from sunNfun was that the terms and conditions at EK would become third-world, not the standards.
By all means, continue to misinterpret (and jump at those shadows) at your leisure.

I read your post and then I re-read SunNFun's and Parabellum's. I woke up the wife to help me with the chip that appeared to be making walk with a limp. Was getting ready to apologise to them both - then H3DXB chimed in and suddenly I wasn't limping anymore.

ATSU your very accusations make you as guilty of the same "sin" as the other parties you are pointing fingers at. I am one of the nationalities you mention. You don't know me so are hardly qualified to make generalised comments about me or my nationality. Time to jump off the high horse buddy and stick to the original thread.

Took a long breath before I responded to this.
The original thread dealt with EK reality - well part of the reality is the attitude displayed earlier by some of our colleagues.
If, as you say, you are from the 3rd world and you have no objections to Parabellum's, Ferris' and H3DXB's posts you either didn't read them or you have no objections to being paid less because of your passport.
Wasn't springing to your defense - you make the assumption that I'm not from the 3rd world. WRONG!
"Buddy" (WTF) you're right I don't know you - but clearly you don't know me.

Chip here, chip there .... the thread is called Emirates reality, so let's have reality work:
The reason guys from one "part" of the world work here in the first place, is because not enough could be found close in or from other "parts". For that reason the renumeration had to be attractive enough to lure them over here. Now that apparently sufficient and apparently adequately qualified guys can be attracted or trained from these other parts, and they even run over to the pit for less money, it is only logical that EK looks that way.
Only time will tell if this works and which chip is closer to the truth.
Simply wait and see.

Emirates reality is that if you want to reduce your Provident fund premiums for a while, your portion drops from 5 to 2,5%, while the companies will drop from 15 (or12) to 7,5%. If you want a payment holiday, you will save your portion, but EK saves all of theirs as well.
And it is painted as helping the employee! Sheesh!
Not that it matters too much, the funds have been performing like an ice cream stand in Red Square in January!
