Contrary to what is discussed on this forum, I don't believe that 90 percent of people hate their jobs. I think people generally like their jobs. I've had students who are from all walks of life and found that most loved their jobs and they were not pilots for a living and they would never trade it to be a pro. pilot. Also many of my friends and family are teachers, scientists, accountants, construction workers, business owners, and they like their jobs and they don't sit on the expressway in traffic every morning hating life, but rather just hating traffic. In addition I have found that not everyone is in love with aviation and wants to be an airline pilot. People have different passions that drive them in life; just because yours happens to be piloting an aluminum tube doesn’t mean that everyone else's life is crap. Since I have stepped away from the airline profession I have been rewarded the ability to pursue other interests and found that it really is amazing just how much you miss due to the chaotic fog of aviation that takes hold when becoming and being and trying to stay as, the airline pilot. Besides airline pilots sit in traffic all the time on ramps taxiways holding patterns gate holds cancelled flights its all the same.
