Thumbs down Working for free

A colleage was telling me that the Harvard setup at Shoreham had called him up the other day.
Apparently they are running short of suitable instructors for their operation and wanted him to come and do some for them. when he asked about pay they seemed to think he should be happy to do it for free !!
I only instruct because I enjoy it, but I don't think ANYONE should be instructing for less than the going rate, if only to protect the rate for those that have to earn from it.
(just as I think BA retirees should not be taking low salaries to boost their pensions - it dosn't help those of us who are trying to make a living from the job)
