Different times now. When I started this career 20 yrs ago, it was a different ball game. Airline careers were still highly regarded, and the pay was on par with other professionals (doctor/lawyer/engineer) to a point. It wasn't a "pie in the sky" 20 years ago. Besides the quick recession in the early 90's, there were jobs to be had. It isn't like it is now.
