I am genuinely sorry brother. I won't blame you for your problem. It's a result of the mess after deregulation when bankers, bean counters and MBA's took over the running of airlines from the likes of Juan Trippe, Howard Hughes and Bob Six... Welcome to the real state of the profession today! All jobs created are sub-poverty line wages.
I swear, if I turn the page on another issue of AOPA Pilot or Flying and see another "Be an airline pilot" ad showing some 20 something year old kid with an airline captains suit on inside a 777 cockpit I'll go postal!
