It’s not that I think the job is easy. In fact, there are days when it’s quite challenging and stressful, and I’m glad my training kicks in and helps me in my decision making process.
All I really said was that an airline pilot is a blue collar job with specialized training. That said, I feel like a loser anyway and I always wonder what life would be like had I not pursued this career.
