I did not cry unfairness about lack of DEC jobs. The fact remains that IF such jobs were ever to be offered, I am qualified, or at least was on previous criteria. That is not a boast.
Well, perhaps one day if DEC positions are available you'd meet the requirements to
apply, whether you'd be
qualified is another thing...
But do keep on hoping stansdead, because EZY (purposely?) c*cking up the pilot demographics might very well result in management soon crying crocodile tears claiming: 'we'd
loooove to promote our own, but sorry, we now
haaaave to hire DEC's' because our poor junior cadets living on bread and water, sleeping in car parks for the last 2 years do not yet meet the requirements.'
Oh yes, for all those people who think that NSF's fairy tales will shield you from DEC's: think again! It ain't gonna happen! The red thread running through that orange company is: divide/conquer, lather, rinse, repeat... Every 5-7 years the company can pull the same fast ones again and again because the new generation of pilots is again willing to believe the bullsh!t and the previous generation has moved on or has surrendered.
The big picture: dangling one more carrot in front of those poor (but cheap!) cadets to prevent them from leaving too soon before their useful shelf life (a few years in the RHS and then LHS) has expired! Imagine: 'free' cadets paying their own type rating living on bread & water and then being able to squeeze even more productivity out of them in the LHS before they
off to Emirates! A wet dream for any bonus oriented manager/accountant/training captain!
