Spandex, Fair enough I bow to your better knowledge, in my search for a job I found no airline interested in paying for my training.
What did I do to get into the industry? Well let me tell you as I couldn’t get into the industry initially I did an instructing course and also worked as a dispatcher both with the intent of helping me to get that all important foot in the door, both of these factors showed that I was working in the industry rather than just buying my way in as you imply. Ok so I paid for my TR but like I said before I couldnt find any airlines paying for your training nowdays, perhaps 1 or 2 bond you, but is that soo different?
As for my contract its not necessarily what you are implying, but Im not going to state it publicly here for as Shaun has reminded me, it’s a public forum.
