With what will probably be a 2 - 5 year period of very few new CPLs being issued, once the food chain is moving normally there will be very few junior pilots coming in at the bottom to replace those on the ladder stepping up. This shortage will progress through the levels as the years go by and someone in the right place at the right time could ride the wave of having very little competition as he goes through the usual stages of advancement from first job to jet commander.
I would guess you work at a flying school
