But you do know better...so why say it?

All you have is the prospective of a loser. You played "I'll Bet My Career" and lost. I suppose there is some value in learning from other's mistakes, so you do provide a certain service here to folks wanting to pursue a career in aviation...you basically are a road map of all of the potholes not to step in.

I'm still here, BTW...still in the game. Call anytime you want.

It wasn't so much your decision to leave a prosperous regional so much as it was your 'roll the dice' decision to throw that Horizon seniority away and go to a 'shot in the dark' outfit like you did. That was the mistake...had you gone to a better established carrier, you may well have done OK.

But you didn't...with all of that aviation expertise you claim to have, you chose a failure. Such is life.

Please do! Which ones would you like to contest?

You chose poorly. Now quit whining about it and get on with your life.

I hope they do. I teach personal responsibility along with professional flying skills. I emphasize the positive and push the idea that a bad attitude is a self-fulfilling prophesy. I didn't 'self-destruct', nor do I think anyone else will either who keeps those ideas in mind.

You aren't the first person I've known in life whose response to a setback was to wallow in self-pity. You were faced with a fork in the road of life...you picked the wrong way to go.

By contesting your posts here, I hope others will not do the same.
