Thanks for your comments.

You got Skyhigh beat three times. One, you got the interview that he never got. Two, you got hired and on the list that was his end all, be all. And three, in 10 years, you'll be flying 737's around while he'll still be a slumlord coming on here telling you that you should have been a garbage collector...

While Skyhigh's personal choice based on his personal situation is to be applauded (god bless him), I still can't figure out why he attacks those who find the career a worthy job. He'll say he's the counter point to all us successful losers. But if you can't post in an accurate, credible, provable manner, then there is no point in listening to the guy.
I am not trying to "put down" anyone. My purpose is to point out some things about the industry that people may have not thought of before. 70K seems like a lot of money until you compare it to another choice.

In my calculations a career at Horizon has an uphill battle to try and match the prospects that a mailman has.

Not a put down but an analysis. I wish someone had filled in the blanks for me.
