As I always say aviation failed me.
If aviation can fail you then it's just a matter of time before your next job fails you too.
It matters to me since young starry eyed kids might wrongfully get the impression that skill, knowledge and experience are a valued commodity in the airlines.
It seems to me that most people get into aviation because they want to fly jets. Your priorities have just changed. QOL is more important to you than continuing to fly for a living. There is nothing wrong with that but I can bet you that if all these kids are getting in glassy eyed and then you were the same way when you got in.
I have tried and failed more things in my 10 years on my own then most people in their whole entire life. I don't go through life with blinders on because I have learned it doesn't help. But I do believe in overnight success. You know... the kind where you bust your tail forever and then out of nowhere people think you just popped out a success.
Noone owes anyone anything. The aviation industry doesn't owe any of us anything. If you believe the aviation industry failed you it's because you believe it owes you something.
And why do I need to inflate my ego. I am just another post on an internet message board.
