NightSun (Kiwi in big trouble son of) I totally agree with the sentiment BUT in the real world people will always do it. We all want to feel like our careers are progressing and the only progression available for a lot of folk out there at present is schemes like this.
EasyJets arguement being it's your qualification not ours and we will only pay you back if you use your qualification in our business not someone elses. There is a certain business logic to it even if from our point of view the whole thing sucks !
