You couldn't be more transparent even if you would just came out say what you really think.
Just because you use polite words and try to sound nice doesn't hide the fact that LNL76 and others are right about you when they summarize your sentiments as:
You've basically said as much in nearly as many words! And when you get called out on it you circumnavigate it or ignore it entirely. It makes you look weak. If you truly don't feel that way then clear it up for us direct and to the point. But if you do feel that way then just own it and all of this can stop.
You see, people here aren't responding to you like this because they can't accept that someone thinks aviation is not a good career choice. Everyone here respects your right to that opinion, and you're certainly not alone here in holding that opinion.
People here respond to you like I am now because you're a very judgmental and arrogant person that grossly generalizes ten's of thousands of people about their morals and values. You have absolutely no right to say such things. Its not enough for you to simply say that you think aviation is a poor career because of tangible things like risking a low financial return, less time at home, unstable industry, etc. That would be fine and anyone would be hard pressed to argue against that. No. You tell others that they are bad people in almost as many words. It would only take mere minutes to pull up dozens of posts where you do this.
Now that I've said my piece, I'm going to quit while I'm ahead.
AZ,
I just disagree is all. Plenty of others here are writing the same stuff. Go after them for a while.
