Hi guys,
I don't think we can expect some movements this week, don't forget it's EID holiday and everything run slowly during this period.
Unfortunately we have to be patient.

Sure the bond is a bit high but I also assume that you do not plan to go anywhere and maybe do another 10 years in the sandpit with the company.
As for the 25% reduction, when things started to slow down were you not all given paycuts so its not anything that you are not used to?
Also for the others around the world that are looking for jobs, life in QR can't be that bad when you have company accommodation, schools paid for and those associated benefits.

Company accommodation? associated benefits? I assume you don't work in Qatar. Company accommodation is accommodation provided by the company at the employees expense, at a rate that is way above any private rental of the same property type. Continually eroding medical insurance cover. No more loss of license cover. Reduced flying pay and increased flying hours to max hours almost every month. Days off limited to minimum. Annual leave restricted or even cancelled for some.
Apart from that, everything is dandy. I just can't think why people keep resigning, especially with no job to go to.

Rejoiners going onto a new fleet are subject to a bond. Question is, is it a paper bond with lots of promises or are the slimeballs actually taking money out of the first year joinining salary less 25%?
If its the former and no cash is removed then great. Sign all the papers they want you to sign. And when you find a new job with your fresh new type rating just walk away. Infact operate the aircraft to a destination that suits you and just dissappear.
Qatar Airways has plunged itself to the bottom of the employment barrel with such haste its unbelievable.
To new or rejoiners - take the job with both hands but use and screw the company before they can do it to you.

Talking to a friend who rejoined last week felt more like a person who’s trying to fix a broken marriage after a split, there is only sadness and resentment. It’s an extremely hard task to make it work again and will never be the same like the old times. Not only I felt his disappointment for being treated as a new joiner but also the new bond imposed, lower compensation package, worst company accommodation than his previous on, etc… all these things really took a toll on him. Not to mention having to deal with all the hassle when you first move to a country after he just went thru the same hassle 8 months ago to leave this same country. It’s not a situation to the faint of heart. Sometimes I just wonder if rejoining is indeed the best decision.

As QRA350 put so clearly, YOU GUYS HAVE A JOB. Just out of respect for the many that are still unemployed, please stop whining. Myself, and many others I’m sure, would be happy to be where you are now. If it’s just too much for you to bear, leave space for the really hungry. Complaints with a full belly definitely sound hollow.
