"It was a rant after all. One and a half years worth of it."
Do you feel better now...hehe.
My only question would be why all the pent up frustration in the first place? Did somebody promise you something? Have you been mislead?
Flying for the airlines is hardly for everybody. You are sort of married to the job (though, I'd say most jobs are probably like that). It has it's ups and downs. Don't forget that the airlines aren't the only game in town. If one can't stand the lifestyle, perhaps corporate, fracs, 135, Alaska, or military are other alternatives. To each his own.
