The line between love and hate is razor thin in aviation. A pilot for FedEx might be living the dream while someone at Jetblue is miserable. They both are airline pilots but the differences in bases, pay, perceived future and scheduling can result in a horrible time.
The airlines are like a lottery. Those who strike it rich are mostly very happy I am sure. And let's not forget that every decade or so the airlines go through a difficult time and the deck gets reshuffled. If you look at the statistics far more people change
from aviation than to it. In a flash your dream can become a nightmare.
