Has anybody ever really wondered where instructors come from?
With all the airlines looking for people, GA looking for replacements for those who went to the airlines, flying schools looking for replacement Grade 1s who went to GA/airlines etc. WHO IS GOING TO BE LEFT TO TRAIN THE NEW INSTRUCTORS? You can't expect the new instructors to be able to properly train the newer ones and keep any sort of decent standard!
If you stick to your guns and only work for a reasonable pay (or better!), eventually, the cheapskates and crooks will HAVE to employ you or somebody like you at a reasonable rate or else close their doors due lack of instructors. Meanwhile, the good schools get better reputations (relatively at least) and are more able to afford to pay their staff.
It's all merry-go-rounds and swings.....
