Who in their right mind would do that.
No money to pay for planes and staff at home base but "my mate has to get a job because he is migrating to Australia".
What a disgrace.

I would not be so quick to judge others really.
Some may not have another shot at working any other place for unfortunate reasons and have a family to feed.
I have flown with some wonderful and extremely competent colleagues that would never be able to find another job somewhere else simply because they carry a passport to a country that is destroyed today. In some cases they have never even lived in these countries, but have been victims of being born with these nationalities.
While I am fortunate and extremely grateful that I am not in that position, I think it says alot about you if you judge others or find them to be "worthless", or "spineless" while you haven't the slightest clue what they are going through.
Instead I choose to feel blessed to be in a better position. For you gents that share that sentiment and feel that sense of superiority, I sincerely hope that life doesn't teach you the hard way that you could also be on the other end of the spectrum.

Internal Memo dated 4th June 2020 says “Salary Increments will be frozen for a period of 5 years and this will apply to both Qatar Airways and Qatar Executive”
There is no mention of 25% pay cut is temporary! It is permanent” atleast min for 3-5yrs.
AAB likes to play with words” He was giving “warning” to Boeing & Airbus as well & we all know how easily QR backs off from its statements.

It will come down to supply and demand . 3 , 5,10 years? Who knows . There are still 100'sif not 1000's now willing to come for current T & C s . ME managers are drooling ( those that survive ) but for those familiar with the management style of the ME in general you know what I mean . 10 years to get back to pre covid 19 T &Cs is my guess .
