So, I for one am glad you post, and others who have left. Thank you.
What I do not understand is why those who love this industry are here. It's called "Leaving the industry"! Why are you even in here in the first place if you don't want out?
Jesus, it's almost like this forum has become the antithesis of its name. The "Pilot Profession Defense Force" is out in full effect here. How dare one decide to do something else with their life. Let us who want out actually talk about it for crying out loud!
NightSky -
Are you saying that the ones who AREN'T leaving the industry shouldn't be allowed to post here?
So do you believe that ones who ARE leaving the industry shouldn't be allowed to post anywhere else - you know - other forums or threads where people have started off asking about how to [get into the career]and then are bombarded with the negative responses. And I'm not talking about the [be careful and know what you are getting into] responses - I'm talking about the [you are wasting your life and not caring for your family] type of reponses. Is that fair in your opinion?
If a certain group can post in any other forum then what is your problem with the so-called "Pilot Profession Defense Force" posting here?
