Just came accross your channel by chance. Watching your clip I guess they fired you not because of the tattoo but because you lied when signing the contract. On the other hand I am surprised it takes so long to remove a tattoo. Havent seen it but my understanding is that you need to remove the skin until you reach the area underneath the skin? Litteraly until the color is kind of washed out? Well, the video is a proof that you lied in a job interview obviously and as long as you talk about it people doing a background check on you will finally come accross your socialy media accounts too. They will stumble even over this video by time. Thats maybe a bad side of all this "lets make my life transparent" strategy. On the other hand you´re honest about your mistakes and your lessons learned and for me, if I had a company, that counts more then making mistakes. We all do mistakes in our lifes. There is nobody who didn´t. I dont know you actually but I believe you´re a great person, with a great character with a big heart. A little bit emotional on spot but hey thats okay :) I probably would put you right in business class service if not higher when getting you on my fleet. You´re are the perfect flight attentant and I know there are many airlines out there that would be happy to offer you a job. I wish you good luck and a never give up! I am sure you will see the world one time and shine above the sky. All the best.

ALL THINGS WORK TOGETHER FOR GOOD to them who love God & are the chosen. Cat, you are chosen & I know you have so much 'had i known', 'what ifs' & maybes at this period but NONE of that matters because ONE thing is to be discerned from your case , If it was meant to be, then it would have happened at least with Etihad. Trust me, there's so much lined up for you that your imagination couldn't ever have imagined - God"s got a funny sense of humour you know? You just might be the best fit for a private jet FA (who knows 😁☺️) or way out of that league & so much fulfilling. I just want to remind you that the Underdogs are still winning and the Rejected stone became the Chief cornerstone. Weep Not, infact be very happy because you will have your day & your day is just around. I know it for you Cat❤ New subbie 🎉

This video randomly showed up in my feed, i was so interested in the title,so read on & was mesmerized by your story ,how arriculate you are, & how resiient you were to immediately try for another airline..I'm an old lady now,but WAY back ,long before you & your subs were ever born,i applied for a position at a now defunct airline, was rejected & was devastated, i was so devastated that i stupidly would not try for any other airlines ( something i have always regretted.) So,keep on trying, even if this leads you on a different path,just never give up! Best wishes!

Obviously you don't know why Etihad did that they did. However, I would expect that companies as strict as those you are dealing with check people's facebooks, instagram, if you have a youtube channel etc. If you have a channel and they are able to find it, I expect that would be a reason for them to be concerned (whether or not for good reason). With employees going online a lot when they leave (including if there are employment disputes), means a company would be anxious of any consequences if things go bad (as it did, given you discuss the termination in this video). Therefore, they may take the cautious approach and do not employ those with a standout public presence (and a possible future publicity risk for the airline). You can see how these large corporations treat you like a number and want you to be just that (and nothing more). You will find somewhere great where you can connect with customers based on being you. Of course I do not know if you being on youtube is the reason for Etihad's decision, however it's possible. Thank you for sharing your story; you have a wonderful presence.

What do you think about using Duolingo? I’m trying to learn six languages at once on that app: Portuguese, Greek, Spanish, Chinese, Hindi, and French. Wondering if you think if this will lead to futility!
@catbeingcurious
@catbeingcurious Күн бұрын
Oh gosh! I don't recommend that at all haha. Definitely subscribe to the channel as I'll be providing more content about this in the future. Basically, you should aim to learn one language at a time if possible, or maximum two if they are from separate language families. For example, both Spanish and French are romance languages which will lead to greater confusion if you try to do them at the same time versus Spanish and let's say Hindi. Secondly, although Duolingo is a great way to start, I would recommend supplementing that with a tutor or with more chances to practice the language yourself like travel or a language exchange group. If all you do is translate random sentences on a screen you will lose motivation eventually. Hope this helps!

And yes UAE is a different culture and definitely we need to respect difference and have open respectful dialogue rather than a judgemental approach to this . However, Emirates is not a local airline only serving the Middle East, they are a global company. We are not talking about a tattoo across your face or on your entire calf or entire arm.

They might have terminated you because of the deception. As an employer, I wouldbt want to hire people I cant trust.

The company is crazy as the country is but you are untruthful about the removal. When you start the process to get it removed, expectations are clearly communicated to you how many sessions and how long it will take. You ignored it and just went ahead in an ignorant way and got punished for it in the end. Emirates would have been clear about their requirements at the beginning. That type of ignorance display is acceptable in Canada and you get away with not being called out for it at home but this doesn’t work everywhere else in the world

@@catbeingcurious it may sound harsh but it is better to admit to a mistake being made rather than hiding behind a made up excuse that ‘you didn’t know better’. my point was, having done tattoo removal myself, it is clear that it is a long process from point of first consultation, not just 3 months. it is better to face those facts so that you may take a different approach next time. it is easy to lie to oneself about these things and it is detrimental to one’s personal development. My previous comment essentially highlights a critique of Gen Z, suggesting that they often exhibit a sense of entitlement and a desire to have it all. - ‘i knew it but I just tell myself later i didnt’ is a classic example for that. no harm or ill intentions intended, just harsh advice. good luck in your next endeavours.

As tempting as it is to judge, the aim with this video is to help others avoid the same situation. Had tattoo removal procedures been more advanced or had I known the length of time actually required to remove it, this would have been a non-issue as I would have just waited in Canada. The lesson here is actually take your time and learn how long tattoo removal really takes for future crew who may be in this situation. Thanks for watching!

I am just an old man now. Spent my life learning every day! Spent 28 years of my life in the airline business...management. In my opinion, I think that both Ethiad and Emirates missed the opportunity to hire a great employee. But this industry is about glitter, not facts...Been there, done that....now young lady, forget about the glitter and get a job that appreciates your brain, beauty and humanity. You will get rich, be able to afford 1st. Class tickets and have those SERVANTS ADORE you and let them make their measley 30.000 a year! Good luck, you are an exceptional lady.

Nothing would prompt me to work for an airline in a country with the most racist, homophobic, xenophobic laws ever. I even refuse to visit the sordid country. I’m a gay man and I refuse at my age to have to tone down my gayness. I’m not going to flaunt it but I’m not going to conceal it to please the administration in Dubai.
