First want to apologize for my rant a few days ago. Little drunk that night and got banned for 3 days to cool off.

Just frustrated with this profession. Just hit 3 years at comair. I know that's not long. I dread going to work now. The bs you have to wade through to get to the airplane has made this job worse. I will always love flying. I have made the decision to walk away from aviation. Currently in the running for a desk job in the shipbuilding industry. I would trade flying for stability right now. This has been the worst investment I have made.

This job has been ruined by passengers who expect to be spoiled after thay paid $20 to fly non stop from JFK to LAX or where ever. Flying used to be a privelege. Now it's become as arbitrary as riding a bus. Pilot pay reflects this attitude as well.

I hope this industry recovers. I wish my fellow pilots the best of luck. I am giving up the fight. Worn out and burned out.
