My peers and I have experienced it first hand.

Employers look at you as if you have two heads. My home town is full of business owners who were professional pilots because they could not find a decent job in the outside world with a pilots resume. Might as well be a business owner. It is just as hard to find a job.

Walk a mile in civilian shoes. It is not that great.
