I think you need to get your facts right. Whoever told you that Emirates don't have ground staff at the airport? LOL.

Moreover, if you're referring to QR handling your baggages on Emirates Airlines, you're mistaken again, I'm sure you're talking about QAS, that's Qatar Aviation Services!

Since you have never flown QR, perhaps, its high time you do so and save yourself a stopover at Dubai each time you wanna get out of Doha. ;)
