I've asked a couple captains out on the line and Ive heard anywhere from 6mos to 1year. But I tell you what, I think if we all lived within our means, and on your days off you actually do something that actually removes you from the job, it wouldnt be as bad as some of you make it, ie: party hard, sports league, fun stuff with the kids & wife, etc.
Me personally i come out of a foster situation growing up in a not so peachy neighborhood 10 mins from JFK. I am very fortunate to even be posting on this website, and to have a job that I love. I think I've run into a little too many who complain about our job a whole lot. Honestly coming where I come out of, I see nothing but happy days ahead, and I hope many of you realize some of the things less fortunate people have to do just to survive.
