We all have a choice; pay the money or not.
I enquired of the Employment Service whether the £50, and all the others, was a legitimate expense which they would pay for those in search of gainful emlpoyment. The answer was a profound NO !
If you elect to pay the man his pound of flesh that is your choice, however, if there is one single thing we need right now more than anything it is unity; those folks with jobs should be helping those without jobs and if MOL and his admin staff think it's a good idea to stiff people for money when times are bad.......well, why dont we all simply not bother applying and send the Cvs to Stelios instead ?
When MOL has airplanes he cant crew he'll change his mind.
If you run with him you do nothing more than f**k it up for yourself and everyone else.
Those who say pay the money and get a secure job ? Get a life;nothing in aviation is secure.
