Quite. We all want better terms, more pay, more time off etc etc, and often it’s well deserved, but when someone wants to spend vast sums on our training and asks some common decency by way of commitment in return it’s too much to ask? I’ve always seen it as a reason for my employer to keep hold of me… paying for own ratings, been there, done that, no thanx.

Edit - I’ve always thought it’s important to pick your employers wisely. No one wants to be bonded to crooks for 3 years who will try and stuff you given any opportunity, but if they are reputable and offer a good job, what’s the issue? If you don’t want the job don’t take the rating.
