Ok, well, great. I get it. However, I truly hope that the condescension you (maybe unintentionally) portray on these boards doesn't manifest itself in your real life, because if it does, you will have a difficult time actually landing a "dream" job. Probably the biggest thing the airline interviewers look for during their face to face with a pilot is "Can our crews get along with this man/woman for 3 to 4 days at a stretch. Will he/she work well with us?"
I mean this with all sincerity. Almost without exception, the pilots I have flown with over the past 23 years within airline cockpits have been people that I consider super laid back, easy going, yet focused and disciplined when when required - in short, people that I have enjoyed being around.
Your internet persona does not come across as that guy. I realize, however, that people frequently take on a different persona online than they really are in their real lives.
Again, best wishes to you and your long term goals.
