grecoaj- Good news is the flightschool I fly at is great (little pricey but thorough) and they hire the CFI's they train fulltime. My CFI back in 05 is now a captain at Skywest. Heck, the guy I did my BFR with a year or so back just got hired at Skywest. Bad news is I still haven't landed a "lowly" hourly job.
Nice to know that there are still some other guys out there taking the long road to a potential flying job while our peers are already in the right seat.
BTW- I'm still waiting to here back from JCPenney...
