I submit that, if I'm paraphrasing your opinion correctly, the job of a private pilot flying from A to B is more difficult than a 121 operation flying from A to B is an argument against the validity of our work. You may be good at being an airline pilot, and you may be as professional as the next guy, but if you don't love your work...why do it? Maybe I shouldn't have made it an imperative for you to quit...but rather ask, why do you even bother? Why waste your time with something you don't take seriously?
You have taken what I said and twisted it into something it is not. You are putting words in my mouth and now totally mis-quoting me. I never once said I don't ever take flying seriously. I never once questioned the validity of the profession. You can jump to these crazy conclusions if you want but I won't even bother to argue against them because you will read what I write and make crazy inferences that just aren't there.
My two simple points: flying GA is more fun than flying an airliner, a GA pilot on an average flight has to make more decisions than an airline pilot on an average flight.
