One more time for the folks who still don't get it: Pay for training is where the candidate hands money to the employer to cover the cost for his training. A requirement to have a type rating to qualify for a job is NOT, repeat NOT pay for training. Any questions?

I get it plenty, hoover. You can polish the turd all you want, but it's still a turd.

Hey Milehigh6080,
Maybe United States of America (thats the name of the country and not America as you refered) is fair to your eyes but in the rest of the world eyes that's about 6 billion (a little more than 330 million), USA it's not fair at all.
If you were born here you have your finite credit as you refer since you were born and was issued a SSN on your name.

Right, nobody in the USA really deserves to enjoy her benefits because, hell, all they did was win the sperm lottery and pop out in a hospital in the US rather than some less fortunate country. Jealous? I don't accept that premise at all. Any citizen of this country who works as a productive member of society, who votes, who serves in the miltary, who does anything at all to further the ideals that this country stands for deserves the credit and the rewards. Native citizens and immigrant citizens are not only deserving of the benefits of living here, but they are also deserve credit for keeping the country moving in the right direction. It's absolutely not perfect, we have more than our fair share of problems, but I'm certainly not moving somewhere else in the belief that there is a better place in the world to live. Rather than critizing and being jelous, maybe more countries should use the US as a model of how to do things- obviously our system works.

But if u move to USA with your family, because your airline (that use to be the second major in your country of origin) was bankruptcy due predatoy competition by some US carriers that are now incredibly in chapter 11 don't you think some legislation should stop this greedy CEO's from destroying the free world?

What a terrible place the USA is. The airline in your home country goes bankrupt and you are able to move here and find work. How awful. I always get a kick out of people who move to the US to find work because the economic system in their own country does not allow a business to profit and flourish, and then propose than the US adapt some of the same regulations that killed the business in their original country. Is this some kind of "share the misery" plan? No I do not think that there should be legislation that stops "greedy CEOs from destroying the free world." Legislation that stops them from doing that would destoy the free world on its own- you can't legislate and regulate freedom. You have to just let it be. You have the freedom to not work for a corporation that is run by a "greedy, manaical, evil CEO" and you also have the freedom to not purchase their products or services. If you don't like the way they do business, don't do business with them, they can't exist and thrive unless enough people are happy enough with their product and service to keep them in business.

On my point of view free world is when you have options.

So you support options, except when you don't. Regulations on businesses limit options too. Corporations are run by private citizens, they're owned by private citizens, their stock offerings benefit private citizens when they profit. You support options for whom? You can't support options and freedom at the same time that you're opposing it.

When you se yourself in a point to sell or use your assets to get a job is no option.

That is an option. It's not one that you like but it is an option. Capitalism does not offer unlimited security, it has never claimed to. Markets under capitalism change and grow very quickly, that's what makes it such an effective system. Placing regulations on it dilutes that process and may take away some of the uncertainty, but it also takes away some of the ability for the market to grow and adapt to something bigger and better. Every failed commuist and socialist system has learned the hard way that you can not regulate success- when you take away the freedom of a person to reach unlimited success then you take away some of their drive and motivation and the whole system slows down and grinds to a halt.

Torture the logic and parse as many words as you want, Dash. SW is essentially PAY FOR TRAINING. Geez, even a cheap ####-sucker like Connie Kalitta doesn't make you pay for your flight training.

Flying for Kalitta shows how low someone will go for a job.

And technically right now, SWA isn't requiring the type for an interview.
