Spot on Endofeng! (nice exhausts by the way!)
I don't care what anyone says about it being worthwhile taking a short term hit for a long term gain. As far as I am concerned, I have no respect for any company who would ask a pilot to work for free or pay for training. I have even less respect for a pilot who is prepared let themselves and the rest of us down so badly. We are professionals! (Or rather, some of us are)
