Default GTA Taking heat

GTA is being sued for all sorts of stuff ranging from poor mx to duty times.
Won't be long now.

From what I have heard from many people GTA seems like one of those places that takes advantage of peoples "dreams" like Jet University only GTA has been around longer than JetU so they at least had to be doing something right. Regardless, the only people that suffer from this are the guys and gals that payed up front for their training. I hope they can find a way to complete their training and accomplish their dreams even if I disagree with the road they took (pay to get a job).

I say good riddance to this blood sucking company if we are lucky. For those that might loose 25k they spent to buy a job, serves you right.
