Given that perspective it is a miserable black hole of uncertainty that can not even afford to pay for the cost of the training it took to get there let alone support a family to a standard that is much above what seems like poverty when compared to other similar professions.

This profession is best served as a working hobby.

Ok I have read enough! What job is not a black hole that could be over tomorrow? Man typical employee jargon, am I glad I am not an employer any more. If you have it so bad then I will tell you just quit and go work at McDonalds. If you have 18 days off a month why do you not have a second job? Lazy? You think the airlines should pay you more to sit on your but? Fact you want to be rich but you only want to work part time! Off 15 or18 days a month IS part time. Yo get paid for 75 hours a month, that is one weeks worth of work!! What the hell is wrong with you folks. You have got it made. 75Hrs a month is your work load, with an attitude like that you should just say your as sorry as welfare recipients.
