Lets keep things in perspective and realize that a downgrade and having to sell your Harley is not the most terrible thing to have happen in someones life.

He seems to have a wife and 4 healthy kids who love him. A nice home and still being able to provide a life for his family.

Again, lets keep things in the proper perspective about what is truly important in life.
Juice,

With all due respect, I think the majority of the folks here are focusing on his personal information, and not the message, or the advantage we all gain every time our wages and quality of life are exposed in the news. Bryan is actually one of the most grounded people I know, and he agreed to do this article to bring awareness to the masses about the sacrifices we all make. Your's and mine might be different, but as you said let's keep things in perspective.

The way I look at it is that you and I deserve to make a lot more than what we make for all the time away from home and our families, for all the times we fight through bad weather, for all the times we go beyond our call of duty to get folks safely to their destinations. So why are we going to criticize someone who has put his neck on the line for the benefit of everyone in our profession. Would you do the article?
