If you are really a 767 CA... flying one flight, long layover, one flight.. 5 days off.. $150k per year.. please realize you are doing better than 98% of Americans and most airline pilots in this country. Stop complaining and feeling sorry for yourself.
WOW You really are not in touch are you? Yes I have worked a "real" job, 10 years doing it before airline. It was the grocery business if you still wish to argue. Grocery managers, yes grocery managers, are making Airbus Captain pay ol' buddy boy.
Yes I really am a 767 Capt. Where the heck are YOU getting your schedule information?? One leg.......what a dreamer.
As usual, guys like yourself have clouds in your eyes and are completely forgetting why we do a job.......money! To enjoy it is a perk. I enjoy it,
but the money isnt there because of tools working for free, paying to fly an RJ, (Gulfstream Intl) working for wages that are below poverty.......
You know like scabs......take a mans job for less and no work rules....
Question my friend. What would happen to the RJ industry, which is dragging this whole industry in the dirt where we are, If NO ONE TOOK
THE 12K LOW PAYING JOBS?? Hmmm??
I hope you enjoy your career begging for scraps.
