At 19 you should go to college, party yourself silly, have drunk sex with random girls and not have to worry about reserve phone time, 30 in 7 conflicts, when your next PC is due, is the company paying me right, is what they're asking me to do legal, when am i going to eat next, how quickly can I cover the 3 S's (sh!t, shower and shave) in the morning and all those other glamourous things that go on in the regional airline world. Thats just my 2 cents.
He has a very, very good point here...
