Probably because you do not have a better option. I am really sorry for you.
I have been working for many Airlines around the world and (luckily) I have never failed any assessment in Europe, Middle East or Asia. We do have options my friend.
Can you tell me where I can find this better option you are referring to?
The huge problem in aviation is that pilots ALWAYS complain about something. You don't get paid enough if you fly 50 hours and you fly too much if you do 90 hours.
Is working for Ryanair better?
Do you like waiting 15 years for your upgrade in Lufthansa?
Do you like working in China with your huge salary (if you don't get deductions for any silly reasons)?
I Don't know many airlines offering a good salary, paying for the accommodation, contributing to your pension fund, proving a $ 1.000.000 health insurance etc etc etc... Sure you work in exchange for that.
Is this place perfect? No, it's not but I am still waiting to find that perfection!
