The existence of Pprune as a reservoir of knowledge and advice is invaluable. A resource that would have been a great help on my own journey through the system. It is a struggle that is, as it has just been so succintly pointed out by our esteemed leader, undertaken by each and every one of us in this profession. It is hard always was hard and that is part of it's worth to us. Attitude plays a major part in it, and as one who in a small way hires and releases, I can only applaud the advice just given.
