A Day in the life of Layla Shams, Duty Manager
A Day in The Life of Ema Mandeel, Aircraft Engineer Being a woman in a male dominated industry is never an easy feat, but how about when you are the only woman? Ema Mandeel is a 24 year-old aircraft engineer for Gulf Air and is the first female to enter such a role within Bahrain. Ema has been with Gulf Air since December 1, 2004. "I had been doing an Associates Degree in Business Studies at AMA University and was bored out of my mind. This was when I saw an advertisement in one of the newspapers offering training to become an aircraft engineer and I thought, 'why not?'"・・・・・・ | 試訳:エマ・マンディールの人生のある日、航空エンジニア |

A Day In The Life of Layla Shams, Duty Manager As a passenger, we often find travelling hectic, and at each airport all we hope for is a few stress-free hours until the next take-off. Usually this includes a stroll through the Duty Free. Although airports are generally dissimilar from the next, what really makes the difference is the staff. Layla Shams began working at Bahrain International Airport 13 years ago. Although she grew up in Bahrain, Layla had previously been working in ticketing with Gulf Air in Abu Dhabi. "Then I came back to Bahrain. At first it was quite hard to find a job, but then I went into Sales at Bahrain International Airport. Within a few months I was promoted to supervisor, then senior supervisor, until a year and half later when I became Duty Manager. This is because my attendance was very good. I believe that attendance and honesty are extremely important at all times." | 試訳:レイラ・シャムスの人生のある日、職務マネージャ |
