what an arrogant statement. just because your dad flew for the airlines without incident for many years and you did as well it means that getting a degree is overrated. some of us are eager to learn and are willing to go out and try to gain some intellect and find something that interests us besides flying airplanes. English, psychology, engineering the list goes on. many pilots out there don't do well in other fields because they have no other marketable skills. Like you, they thought getting a college degree was over-rated and then they get furloughed and it all goes downhill from there. All of your posts HotMamaPilot indicate to me that you didn't get a degree and it shows on these forums.

Good for you you're an FO for UPS and enjoy flying your "truck with wings". I hope your thankful everyday for the position you hold and realize that at any point something could happen that could end it for you. a car accident, cancer, breaking a company policy, etc. What will you do then? I hope you have a backup plan because if you are looking for a high paying respected job I don't see much hope for you with that kind of an attitude...
