Not sure if sarcasm, but are you asking how there is a shortage in airline pilots when the incentives to start looking at a career in the field are terrible?

- smallerfish 4y agoNo, they're wondering why the market isn't responding to the shortage by increasing compensation, if the shortage is genuine.
- bsder 4y agoPrecisely. The working conditions for the infeed are terrible for pilots as well as flight attendants. A friend went through flight attendent training recently. She did very well but eventually dropped out when the total compensation was small and didn't include things like the rent you pay to "hot bunk" at wherever you wind up stationed. Compensation also didn't include things like paying for your attorney if you are sued while working for the airline. So many "shortages" are like the "shortage" of engineers. No, there are plenty of engineers--just none willing to put up with your bullshit at that price.
