Glad you said that. There obviously is lot of good fellows stucked between rock and a hard place. Only way onward is quite a massive investment to obtain required type ratings etc. Unfortunately this seem to be only way to proceed in case they like to leave their peanut paying air taxi jobs.
I am still a great believer that unions were the main reason that majors couldn't fight back in the dawn of "budget airlines". Now it seems to be far too late.
Makes no big difference in my case, too old and tired. I'm only looking a good reason to retire and to set sailing to sunset.....
Have fun like I did and try to help these youngsters when ever possible.

Especially when the snotnosed and self righteous rich kids then turn around and call those guys "arrogant towards wannabees".
Well, as another poster said: What goes around, comes around. My previous employer (a low cost operator) had an unwritten policy of not hiring people who had previously paid for their jobs.
