I was thinking about my 430am wake up, crappy hotel, 5 hour sit, living out of luggage like a Gypsy, working weekends and holidays and the joke of an outfit (with a union) that I work for and decided to proudly have a beer in uniform today after my last leg (I did remove the made in China zip-up-tie and shiny plastic alloy wings from the make believe left pocket of course). It tasted really good and I've also decided to grow a beard. So far this month scratch lottery tickets have provided more than my paycheck. Good thing I went to college and have a business degree to fall back on. It seems like most guys that stay with this for awhile do so because they have railroaded themselves into it and have never developed any useful business skills. Also, the world will not end in 2012 as the Mayans predicted. It will end when Tony Romo says so.
