I know a lot has happened over the years to cause negative feelings, but if you choose to be miserable, you're not pulling me down with you.
Anyway, thanks for the discussion. It does help explain things.
Most negativity is borne out of frustration, just like your own negativity about not holding DEN. RSV rules are frustrating so we complain, can't get paid to extend as a domestic pilot so we complain, we have a crappy line so we complain........it's the pilot way hell the #1 guy isn't even happy because he has to spend an extra day in HKG because of 117 lol. Bottom line is the vast majority of us are happy far from miserable and enjoy what we do. There are some that are true oh misserable but that's the rareity.
Be glad we are talking about our hats and which airplane is better 757 vs 737, because the day we aren't is the day bad things have happened. These are our problems??? Sign me up!!!
