This isn't the right place to post a job listing! What ****es me off
more is that you were told not to! To top everything off, you
cross-posted to two newsgroups. How about you post an ad in the local
newspaper or on an aviation website where you can post job listings.



Most pilots are delighted to learn of a job opportunity; no matter where they
hear of it. When I was flying professionally, the newspaper was the least
likely place to find a position. Of course, back then, the internet didn't
exist in the same way as it does today.

So he posted it here. So what? I would rather see a posting where somebody was
looking to hire a pilot than where somebody was trying to sell us something.

Who told him not to post it here? You? Who are you?

If he had posted this in rec.aviation.marketplace or wherever it was suggested,
I'd never have seen it. Didn't know that group existed. So I got to read it
here though I didn't have to if I didn't want to; after all the subject line
told all. No false advertising.... And I enjoyed reading the well crafted
post.
