I just couldn't bring myself to do it. Paying my employer money, so i can earn less money.
Well, that's kinda how things work here in SE Asia; you pay to fly and pay to upgrade; again, there are NO unions and seniority is a reference, nothing else. Besides, it isn't really that much different from what most of us did when we started our training and got pur PPL's and CPL's; also, no one's putting a gun to your head, you can stay put if you like...
Personal preference of lifestyle, I guess; also, money is not everything, some of us have been flying the mini-bus for a while; I'm looking forward to a change of pace if the opportunity arised...
have a great weekend everyone!
