Broken records just skipping and skipping and skipping...ect.
On this forum, if anybody comments negatively on the state of the industry, he/she is blasted by the same broken records about doing their homework, "paying dues", "just be glad you weren't here when..." ect. Bottom line, the cheerleaders will always slam anybody who thinks about throwing in the towel for a more suitable job. I love my new job (non-aviation). I left the industry and still fly several times a week. I love flying, that will never waiver. The jet was fun for about a year. The industry was not what I wanted. I did my homework and knew what I was getting into.

Guess what? I didn't want it after trying it. Is that a #@$%%# crime around here? My suspicion is that I share this opinion with several others. Problem is that around here if you say so, you will be put down with harsh words, mostly by the same smugsters. You know who you are.
