Yeah, it sucks that I just paid a plumber at my house twice my hourly wage to wrench on some pipes, but that's the way it is. And, I already knew that when I took this job. That's why I don't complain. Obviously the shoe fit with you somehow. Maybe the mommy & daddy thing ... who knows. All I was saying is that complaining about your situation while feeling like the world owes you something is a jacket that seems to fit the younger crowd a helluva lot better than the older ones as you suggest. Nobody is envious of you, they just get tired of hearing constant sniveling about seat upgrade times, flow times to majors, pay levels, etc, etc. If those are all such a problem then quit and go back to mommy and daddy. Grow a pair and just be happy you're a professional pilot.
