You don't think that a bachelor's degree and years of intensive training should advance you in the pecking order over a fast food worker? A 16 year old high school student is qualified to work at McDonalds. Said student is not qualified to fly an airliner.
In what other career field do workers invest the sort of money we have invested to become qualified and educated and get so little in return?
Have a little pride in your accomplishments and realize that you're worth more than this.
