But what if the option was no job?. Lets say you have just been made redundant from a ME carrier and the only offer on the table is at BA Flight Crew starting pay (currently £26k I believe). Would you take that job simply to keep current and rack up the hours until the industry improves maybe in 3 or 4 years and then you can find something better - or would you leave the industry and do something else that you may not have any qualifications for and for which there may be no jobs available anyway in the current economic climate?
