I'm sure you hear that "are you trying to get enough time to fly for the majors?" I know I've heard that asked of more than one cargo pilot. One of the great things about it would be just to tell people "I deliver boxes for UPS/FedEx." I'm pretty sure that would curtail a lot of tedious conversation right there. Or possibly just say, "I work for an international shipping company. Mostly quality control, making sure things get from point A to point B intact and on time. The job requires me to travel a lot."

But I'm with the other guy, "I work in systems management for aluminum tubing. It's kind of boring."

Or if I'm drunk, I train the starfish at Sea World.
