Loyalty and seniority still has a price I hope. Mercenaries who go off in search of wilder dreams and pay get no less respect for doing so, but expecting to come back on the same salary and seniority as others of their generation who stuck with it ?? **** off.
Not to mention the fact that ASA have (in most cases recently) spent 3 to 4 hundred grand to train someone who then decides that the golden $ is too much of a lure and says "thanks for training me up, I'll be off now". And then have the gall to say "I'm a much better controller for leaving, now I want to come back to the best country in the world, but only if I get more money than the people with the same amount of service". Talk about having your cake and eating it too
