Talk to me in a couple years... then you will finally understand where I am coming from. I am happy for Mesaba, good for you for being fortunate enough to be hired into a great and lucky position. You should be thinking about doing it for the pay because if you are like the rest of us... THIS IS YOUR CAREER!!!! You will need the pay. Espicially when you decide to get married and have kids... who one day will need to go to college.

I'm tired of hearing people like this guy... hey man we all love the job, but at the end of the day its nice to be able to pay the bills and have the quality of life we deserve. Did you know that we are held more accountable for maintaining our sharpness at our profession than doctors? I guarantee that any doctor would tell you that they love saving lives... but there would be alot less doctors if they didn't make what they do.
