Yes I agree..hawker's character needs looking into more than captainnic's.I suppose nobody forces you to take the job and the world certainly doesnt owe you a living but..the job is advertised as a contract(ie expat) position so local living costs are irrelevant.I agree that Kenya is a beautiful place but again..irrelevant.$8k is minimum rate narrowbody...$10k widebody.I know it,you know it,they know it.Anyone under this rate is taking advantage of the present crisis..
