Having spent a year, after finishing my cpl/ir, having no luck with interviews at all, I decided to do my FI rating.

I actually, and this surprised me, enjoy instructing. I cannot afford to give up my day job to become a full-time instructor. It's keeping me current and adding to my hours, slowly but surely.

www's comment, true though it maybe, justifies the comments of the article's subject and makes me feel like I wasted my time and money and puts me even further from getting an airline job.

500 hours instructing, just to break even
