That's amazing how negative people are on this forum, if you appreciate your job then directly you are seen as somebody from the management.
Just for info, I have been waiting since august 2001 to have my first real pilot job, I have done a lot of "little" ****ty job, more than one time I have been in the **** to finish the month. Hopefully in 2006 a new turkish company called me and gave me a totally free type rating on the 737 and the line training, i was still flying for them when a flight school went to propose them a bunch of newbies pilots ready to pay to do the line training... For sure they accepted and they said me goodbye.
Where have you seen that 3500€-4000€ is low salary for a one year FO, if you take TNT or Brussels Airline which where my other alternatives, this amount is the brutto(you divided by 2 to have the netto).
Any way me I am happy and that the most important.
