For what its worth, I was offered a B200 Capt position but even if i wanted too pay the bond(which would be humanly impossible for me to fathom) I can't financially afford the loan anyways. Unreal....what a way to lose potential experienced candidates....bad credit=no job. Thanks for the insult VAL.
