Unemployed pilots are not guilty

Hi All,

A friend of mine told me that there are almost 5.000.000 unemployed people in Spain, which means 21 % of population. The highest figure in Europe.

I think that employer take advantage of that situation and nowadays to get a good salary is impossible in the spanish aviation industry as a pilot. Besides, if you want to get a job you have to pay your T.R.

In addition to this, Vueling Captains increased their salarys thanks to the Cadet Program and they were supported by trade union called S.E.P.L.A (Sindicato Español de Pilotos de Líneas Aéreas). Its a bad environment.

Do you think that there is an employee (at Vueling) who has a guilty conscience? Come on ¡¡
The employees: Captains, First officer, Cabin Crew, Maintance, administrator...etc, do not want to be a figure of that number 5.000.000 (Unemploed people)

I´m afraid that Spain will be following the steps of Greece, Ireland & Portugal.
