Flechas said:So what do yuo suggest those kids do, stay at their CFI job, making less, no benefits, less job security. C'mon, if you want to encourage someone to do that, why don't you show some balls and quit your job, just because it doesn't pay enough. And as you mentioned it, you may have to stay ther for the rest of your life, not like the ones that didn't know.

Maybe if enough of those kids refused to apply and work for low pay, the airlines would get the hint. Yes I did the same thing several years ago, but like a previous poster said, pre 9-11 most of us would have moved on by now. Those days are over and times have changed. New hires need to be satisfied on FO pay for a good 3 to 6 years now days at least.
Take care
