You have just bought in to the lie. If you have demonstrated that you are willing to work for $64K NZ and have noted that there are plenty more willing to work for those conditions, how can you be confident that you can get a higher paying job after a few years? Like I said earlier, project this trend forward a few more steps and you will see that the big expat airlines are only going to pay just enough to temp pilots to their shores. As the pay rate for second tier airlines in the first world goes down, so the pay for these expat jobs will go down proportionately. Add to that, the new guy coming in at the bottom of JStar on the new Multi-crew licence cadetship (or whatever the industry manages to get past the regulator by then) will be even less experienced and willing to work for even less than you, threatening your already piss poor condions.

10/10 for enthusiasm
10/10 for naivety

Good luck...
