thebrother,
I am going to stick my neck out here and say you are disengenuinous (forgive my spelling). Your friends son seems to be far wiser than his parent.
Thats why I think you talk bollo*.
If your friends son is an EI cadet (flying with Ryanair) he is probably in Dublin, he would be due his command, true. What would also be true is that he is being held back for the past 2 yrs. and not given his command as Dublin is frozen. He would also not have recieved a pay rise for a few years. He would have his sector pay severely cut. He would have his medical payment taken away, loss of liscence, he would have had to pay for his 737-800 type rating. He would be randomly been subjected to abusive threats from management.
All in all he would have been out of pocket by about €45k for the past 2 years. True. Add it all up, don't forget the type rating.
It seems to me like the kid has far more sense than daddy.
Getting back to my first point.
You see, I don't think this friend 'Daddy' exists at all.
You seem to me like a RYR management type spinning the usual bullsh1t.
