In 17 years of aviation, God willing, this will be the first time in my life that I ever made over 100,000 in a year on a single job. I have always had multiple sources of income and could retire today at 62 without having to sell anything.
Bingo. A lot of the pilots on this forum whine about everything. They don't like their jobs; they don't like management and all our problems are because of them; they don't like the flow; they don't like their line; they don't have a flow... And they whine about this too, and make posts that sound like they're trying to impart wisdom about what you should do because you are older, but they are just as selfish as they are accusing you of being.
Great post.
