I see it from a self esteem point of view. Not in a cocky way but if individuals don't value themselves that much then why would the "employer".
Note that "employer" is used losely since some will actually PAY to work
Flight International couple of weeks back, a company advertised for a "time building programme" up in Scotland.
A seneca for £75/hr. Cheap I hear you say but then the requirements were:
CPL/IR, Multi Engine, Dangerous Goods, CRm, Fire and Safety. errr... Is it me or sounds more like an advert for a Single pilot job ??? Except it cost money of course.
Outrageous
but legal
