Ok, me again!
OH got his job offer last night, and we were a bit, erm tacken aback? But not sure if we have right to be.
Whilst we are aware that we are very lucky that they are paying for anything, what they have provided it a bit bizzare.
They are paying for HIS flight only, and 4 weeks accomodation for him.
Thats it.
Because of his trade, he has been told that he needs his own tools, and he has them. However, we have to front the costs to get them over there.
Right from the get-go, they knew that there was 3 of us travelling, but its almost like OH has been treated like a single man that has an endless pot of money, which sadly we do not.
We have also noticed that his salary is about 3$ an hour less than what he was quoted at interview.
Would it be wise to try and re-negociate a deal with them regarding flights,shipping etc, whereby we re-pay it off over the course of two years or something?
Or is this pretty common place for an employer to help so much-and then expect the applicant to fund the rest?
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts
