Christmas Cheer From the EK Accommodation Dept!

Seems that some villa complexes have got their marching orders. Quite a lots of families, colleagues.

GDV Villas-Al Badaa

Government Villas In Al Badaa as Well- Was told someone moved in last week, wtf!

NASA Villas-Garhood

Al Furjan-??? Not sure, maybe duff info

Al Wasl Square

What great timing eh. terrific for families 3 months standard blah, blah notice., or have they excelled and made it 2 months

New info suggests they may have given 6 months notice on some moves. Maybe

if you hear of any more. Add it here.

I got the same email - currently in Garhoud.
Joke's on them though - I resigned already and leaving in January before the kick out.
Clearly no-one in that office talks to each other...
On the flip side the joke is on me as we'd been trying to get out of this **** box villa and be relocated to Jumeirah or DSO - guess where the email offered us?
Considering sending a reply email Christmas present picture of my rear end.

Al Baad'a

Behind Life Pharmacy on Al Wasl.
Odd as a new joiner down the street just moved in.
Just last week a frazzled wife with baby in arms told me they were told they were in for two years.

Got the email to move out of GDV (Al Bada'a) by mid June. 50-70 villas here I think.

Wasl Square also got the email.

Options given are some Safa area villas (limited), Al Furjan, and of course the Meydan complexes.

Merry f...ing Xmas indeed!

Everyone??? Unless you're not a pilot as I believe SVPs were left alone in the recently vacated RV32 villas.....

Just think of it has STC and TCAS's way of thanking you for all the hard work you've put in for 2015.
Lets not also forget it's our fault ( aledegdy) according to TCAS that we are short of pilots due to our musings here on Prune about pay and conditions.

Happy Crimbo everyone

Hey Cost N when did that gem pop out?

Our gaff ( the venerable and ancient FV) has just had a number of DIC evictions move in and all the villas have been repainted. So HR's plan would make perfect sense!!
