GF salary Vs. My salary
Me and my gf have been dating for 5 years. Back in 2020, I started my career with a package of ₹5 LPA. Over the years, I’ve reached ₹22 LPA in 2025. She started her journey with ₹3 LPA(2020) and is now earning ₹8 LPA(2025). We’ve been in a live-in relationship for around 2 years, and the idea was to share expenses equally. But, equal sharing never really happened. If we go to a café she likes, especially with friends, I will pay the entire bill. We only split the house rent and grocery bills. I told her lots of time to cut down these costly cafe expenses or earn more money, increase your package, study and work hard, but.....she is now in her comfort zone. Being from a tech background, I have seen people upgrade their skills and package for a good life in metro cities. I am ready to support her in her studies, but she is like I am earning enough for myself.... No, you are not. I love her, but I don't know how to overcome this issue between us. Please suggest!

The salary is on time. Flying with the crew members including Cabin Crew & Pilots is wonderful, they are cooperative and supportive. Being a CC You get to work with people across different states which becomes a learning experience.

  • Job security - Excellent

Dislikes

The administration team is horrible. Some of them have already got themselves into training department before privatization, The Senior Crew members who have been flying right from inception of the company are taken over by these less experienced and corrupt Admin staff who have by support of higher authorities acquired higher positions which they don't deserve.
