SPAAKS...love that avatar glad to see the transfer from the pipe. All of those that left were at F9 less than three years. Most less than two. I'm sure they are enforcing the contract, the management here is very cost conscious. But does it really doesn't matter...who would hang around this place when Delta calls???? I'd gladly pay that bill and never look back.

I have always heard that training contracts are not enforceable in court because it was signed under "duress." I have no idea if this is true, just what was always said.

I wouldn't count on that. If you come to Frontier, get hired, sign a contract and then bail for Delta 6 months later, I think Frontier will come for their money. You'll be able to afford it, but I wouldn't assume they won't pursue. And, just because they haven't in the past doesn't mean they won't in the future. I don't know, but I feel uneasy telling people that they don't need to worry or consider a training contract.

Why would you sign a contract (promise to deliver) only to break it? That is called a breach of contract and I would imagine that if they really wanted to pursue it, they would have a strong case against you.

The right thing to do would be to pay them what you "promised" if you decide to breach the agreement.

Technically, it's a training agreement. Not a contract. A quick Google search will summarize the very distinct differences between the two.

Take it easy. We posted at the same time, so I wasn't responding to you. Everyone calls this a contract, I just wanted to clear up what new hires are being asked to sign.

Doesn't matter in a court of law in most states. It could be written out on a napkin and still be enforceable. It is a written (signed) promise and just about any judge would find in favor of the employer in this case (and rightfully so)

My last words on the subject - Don't defraud your employer. Don't take legal advice from this website or Google.

🤔... Got it. For those of you who missed it, here you go....

By not taking legal advise on this website, I'm pretty sure he means "do" take legal advice. Otherwise, warning against doing so would be duplicitous, as that advice itself is legal advice. But then again, since no legal advice is advised, he's actually saying to not to.

If you need further explanation, please, simply ask. Up next; the speed of a swallow.
