I find your comment pretty standard in regards to the American public. Grossly uniformed but not afraid to just hang it all out there! Go ahead and stick you head in the sand regarding the big picture...if wages continue to spiral down, look what you are going to get a decade down the road for an airline pilot....some under-trained pimple face kid and some overworked, burned-out captain to babysit him. For one who desires to become a commercial pilot, the costs are just too high and the reward almost non-existent. Military pilots will not leave for this BS pay if they believe things will not improve. Enjoy reading about the wrecks down the road! If you want to pull your head out of the sand again I'll bet you have the same opinion on doctors. "They get paid too much and just golf all day." I bet you say that when you are upset over paying your $15 co-pay at the office. Well guess what...family practice doctors are leaving in droves. Most, like airline pilots would not recommend the career field to their friends or children. Tell ya what, take a look and see if the gas station you work for is losing money or not making enough. Go on in and volunteer to work 2 days a week free so your boss can lower the gas prices to drum up business. Don't ask him to cut his $300 grand per year salary, but volunteer to do your part so you can keep the operation making money! Good luck!
