I was laid off from my LCC 757 job. It was to be my last rung on my way to my goal. I ended up falling a bit short and I didn't make it to my ultimate goal. All my experiences added up to zero in the end.

The bottom line is to get there as fast as you can. The industry is handing out CRJ jobs to almost anyone now. Anything less than taking the first possible opportunity in a jet is doing yourself a huge disservice.

The current hiring trend will not last much longer. It would be terrible to be stuck on the out side lamenting how just a short time prior you could of had an RJ job but decided to become a CFI instead.
