I'm not bitter towards aviation. It just doesn't offer what I require. I'm not going to shuffle back and forth from one crap company to another for crap pay and job insecurity. Aviation jobs today operate by - "Here today, gone tomorrow". However, if (doubtful) one day something in aviation comes along and offers what I require then I will take it - but until then I owe it to myself and my family to secure my future. I am not going to wait until I am 50 to decide I want to retire. Life is an investment and aviation stocks don't look good.
