I would not be too sure about the above details on retirement funds while being on a ''temporary contract''!

New policy

NEW POLICY

Dress Code:
1) You are advised to come to work dressed according to your salary.

2) If we see you wearing Prada shoes and carrying a Gucci bag, we will
assume you are doing well financially and therefore do not need a raise.

3) If you dress poorly, you need to learn to manage your money better, so
that you may buy nicer clothes, and therefore you do not need a raise.

4) If you dress just right, you are right where you need to be and therefore
you do not need a raise.

Sick Days:
We will no longer accept a doctor's statement as proof of sickness. If you
are able to go to the doctor, you are able to come to work.

In both Malaysia and Singapore, as long as you are being employed in private sector including alrlines you will have provident fund. Its a law and it is mandatory.

I assume that 's tongue in cheek, or do you now believe we are genuinely getting a raise?

Dear Fubaliera
Why people want to have sex in the aircraft's toilet? It stincks and lack of space, I would prefered to have it in Crew bunk.
Next time if you are on my flight, I will let you use crew bunk and I will give you the code to access to the bunk.

qr n

i just got into QR , and i will begin line training in july. to work for a 5 star airline with the sallary they offers is not good at all. in my homecountry norway, working for a lowcost carrier is much better, they earn around 17000 dollars a month, and still china offers better sallary.

The QR system needs a revolution to make the pilots happy. QR is like a kindergarden, u learn there, and once u have the knowledge u go to others! , but still qr is good airline but the country sucks bigtime.

TcasII..Fubaliera mentioned the Bathroom(Ek A-380 do have)..not the toilet!
At least its a little bit more Stylish..

Damn now people (Dnomyer) start complaining even they haven't started their training yet...thinks are not moving in the right direction here...

loc,

I don't want to pick on anyone but I wouldn't pay too much attention to what dnomyer says. He seems to have a lot of "opinions". Including this from another thread:

fakers
did fake some hours, offcourse 80 percent of the students does it, if we sit backseat on a flight, offcourse we log it! if u believe in youreself, and if u think youre a good pilot few hours doesent matter. i was teaching for a while myself, and i saw students who faked many and many. and now they are on b777 or other airplanes, but the time has come that the organisations need to do something. specially to Indians , they are the biggest threat! its ok to fake small amount, but to pay for the ratings without any experience is dangerous.
so...ummm....yeah. Draw your own conclusions on that one.

QR

i have alot of information about QR so far, the sallary they offers is really not good. so u guys just try to get into Qatar aswell, and u will get more and more information on mail from them. working as a second officer with 3000 dollars a month. and no pension plans, and for me who is norwegian its not easy aswell. i need to pay 36% percent taxes to my government. 3000x0.36=not much left :/

Why would you pay taxes in Norway, since you are working and living abroad? It doesn't make sense!

tax

since i have no pension plans in QR, and for me paying taxex to norway will provide me with free lifeinsurance , free travel insurance, insurance from my mac to my shoe incase it will get stolen. and each summer from june , i will get 10% of it back in vacation money. and if i get injured in my work or other stuff, they will pay me the average sallary i will have in QR until i get job again. and because of our high taxes in norway i got my jaa conversion for free, aswell as the mcc.

dnomyer,

You appear to admit corrupting your log book and almost condone it as an acceptable part of your '2 year studies' , whatever that means.

Just ONE false entry into your logbook corrupts the integrity of the remainder of your flying career.

Surely I am not the only one left who logs purely what I fly? At least I know that every hour I have flown military/civilian is correct.

Shame on you my friend, I will certainly be keeping an eye out for cocksure young Norwegians over the next few months!!

Shifty

oh shifty

oh, its a big deal. i had 991 hours, and i made it 1000, on flights i were backseat i logged it as flying hour, and under faa regulations u can log those hours.. and shame on u, i didnt do it in jaa country. i had 14 hours of flying in oslo once i passed my cpl/me. i dont care either, i got my job quickly and didnt stress about it like others do. and soon i will be on a330 so im proud of myself, and please try to find a captain or fo today who didnt fake any hours, i can promise u that u need to look for a long time. or maybe im just stupid who admits everything and dont look back. but one thing is sure, once i begin to fly jet i wont do anything illegal.

sure be carefull about the norwegians, they will probably land a job more quickly than others. and we dont have any degrees before we start the pilot study, and its normal to see a 21 year norwegian flying a jet all over europe and many in Qatar aswell.

Dnomyer,

Why don't you just log all your hours as passenger aswell? Did you claim your hours as a pax when you came over for the interview?

I have absolutely no issues with you landing a job with QR, or being 21, or in fact for hailing from Norway- I DO have issues with anyone falsely claiming hours, it shows a lack of honesty and integrity. You cannot change what you have done so don't try and label your fellow pilots as having done the same.

ps: I also left school with no quals and was flying at a similar age to you-you are nothing special and neither am I, but at least I am honest despite what my 'nickname' may suggest.
