Well, I'm not. I'm just speaking from my experience. Some people's experience has made them quite bitter and angry about the career. That's understandable. But to say that one is on drugs unless one knocks the career is silly and inaccurate. But, whatever floats your boat....
There is a very large portion of the pilot community that agrees with de727 here. It's just a majority of them work at Netjets, UPS, FDX, Southwest and they have a right to love this career.
Going through my first furlough right and not really making ends meet but there still isn't anything else I want to do for the rest of my life.
Everyone complains about being gone 4 days at a time but I have been told that if I am not recalled soon I need to do something because the "Warden" had gotton used to her time alone at home and misses it.
