New Company Accommodation Evictions
Great News having been kicked out of my old home six months ago, and settled in new accom. I get the PFO letter saying I'm being thrown out of this one.
They just can't help themselves and it only makes it easier and easier to want to leave.

Its old news man...
Not trying to downplay what it feels like to get kicked out of the villa that you've called home for "X" number of years, I got my notice last year and it sucks...especially since the company gets to directly control these issues in your life.
I have followed this whole thing since they broke ground at Meydan. It is the company's plan to move everyone out to Meydan Heights, Meydan South and Al Furjan as units come available and the lease on one's current villa runs out.
There will be villa's that the company still have with remaining time left on the lease which they in turn offer to those who have been given notice, such as the DSO Cedre group, but what they don't tell you is that you will be moving again when that lease runs out. There are all kinds of guys who found that out the hard way.
Again, the firm will house all pilots in one of the three compounds...and yes, sadly it includes the DSO Semmer group as well. At least that place offered some semblance of a normal community to live in and most were generally happy out there.
In the long run its probably not all bad if you had lived "out of town", its just another compound "out of town", but its all the time and money that one puts into the villa to call it a home that is not respected.
I doubt it will cause any great numbers to leave as a result, it'll just piss everyone off a little more.
Thats what the company is good at these days.

Ah yes, Meydan South. The low rise high density accommodation "luxury" villa.
Not yet connected to water mains, not yet connected to the power grid.
And you get the added bonus of experiencing a real live construction site because you'll be living in one!

Always happens just before the weekend. This is sad news for a lot of families.

Went to have a look at South today, came away totally depressed there's absolutely nothing there. If you run out of milk it's a car ride to the nearest shop.
Also a large school is being built on the site as well, right next to the main road in and out. Can't wait for the traffic log jam that will be twice a day once thats up and running.
There is talk of a community centre sometime in 2017, thats still a far way off and the place is still a building site.
Perhaps Norwegian isn't that bad after all, I will go to their open day with a different set of eyes thats for sure.

Take a bunch of lemons, squeeze them as hard as you can.
When there is no juice left, throw them on the floor and stamp, jump, crush them as hard as you can again.
Eventually, the lemons will be as flat and dry as a post stamp and will be taken by the wind...
That is us.

This is our 4th forced company move since living here. No surprise just couldn't figure out what took them so long this time round. I believe we will be opting out as well. Opting out of EK.
