So your saying that those of us at CJC have no interest in getting ahead in life, could care less about supporting our families and don't want job security? That is the dumbest thing I have read here in a while. First of all, any pilot at any regional has already made efforts to get ahead in life. And for supporting our families, those of us that do have families, myself included, manage to make end's meet, a lot of us might have spouses that actually work too believe it or not which is called "dual income", and it's not always about how much you make but what you do with what you make. As for job security, in this industry? I dont think so. Having a family just means you dont spend the money on Ipods, Iphones and all the other little toys I see out there. Instead, you buy your child a pair shoes, take them to the museum, circus, whatever. It's part of growing up. You'll find out one day junior.
