I remember calling in sick for both my CFI job and my 3rd shift warehouse job and then taking a payday loan to buy a ticket and hotel room for a crappy regional job interview…
and that was over a decade before they were offering signing bonuses, guaranteed basing, reserve hotels, etc.
Guess times really have changed.
