I would never work for someone who grabs me by the gonads my first day there and forces me to keep working.
Nothing can be that good about RAH to require me to ***** myself out and be an 'endentured' servent.
Think about any other job, how many of them make you PAY for their 'office training' if you quit.
Im with Sharkey on this one, it would be different if mesa or TSA required it, but RAH is a reputable company that has a constant growth rate. From what I hear people generally like working there. By the time you make captain the contract is up anyways, or when you upgrade before 2 years to captain, the contract becomes void (at least from what I understand). As opposed to eagle where you are sitting for 6 years waiting for an upgrade.
besides it takes over $15,000 to train 1 pilot, now multiply that by 800. what do i know but $12,000,000 is alot of money to an airline. All they are asking for is a little insurance that you will be around for a while. Why do you think RAH mins are still 800/100. All I am saying is that if I was in the business and I spent that much money to train 1 person, I would want a little guarantee as well.
