Good Effort
Was lirking round the office yesterday in a vain attmept to avoid jepps amendments and saw a couple of cracking attempts by low hours pilots to help get their CV noticed.
One industrious chap had gone to the trouble of printing his abridged CV and phone details on a mug, which the MD was quite happily slurping tea from. The other bright soul had done a similar thing with a mouse mat, which was put to work doing what mouse mat's do best.
When questioned, however, neither of the two people in question actually got a job with us, but I really hope that these ingenious schemes where rewarded elsewhere within the community.
Sirs, I salute you.

Thinking of having my mug tatooed on my @rse, partly because it's indistinguishable from my rear end, and partly because it's always the first thing the flt ops dir or cp sticks their size 12s on as they show me the door.

Other bright ideas I have heard of are a instructor offering a Trial Lesson voucher with his CV with 'Try before you buy' written on a note that was attached. Another was a bright spark finding out what the Chief Pilots favourite tipple was and buying a bottle of the said whisky and rolling up his CV in the bottle holder. The most cheesy one is a chap who burned a CD which was full of the Chief Pilots favourite music and a copy of his CV on the CD!
