Scab
weekend flying is for fun. Flying during the week is a career. Get it?

What makes you think I have put in my time? I am sorry too that I haven't made it to a good job. However, back when it was my turn the military wasn't hiring. Things could have turned out very differently for you had things not heated up for the military. It is arrogance just like what you have displayed why I would feel obligated to step in if you decided that your fat paycheck wasn't good enough anymore. [

Even though I am sure that you put in some effort to get where you are the majors are still a country club for a few who belong to the right groups. From your perspective I am sure that you feel like you sacrificed. It probably makes for a good story at the officers club about the mean instructors that you had to endure. It doesnt look like much of a hardship to me however. Keep telling yourself that you are better though.
It wouldn't hurt my feelings to see the status quo turned upside down. I think that day is coming. Ergo the scab talk. Us underlings need to find a way to negotiate our way into the clubhouse too.
Thanks for the best wishes, and though we may disagree I would like to extend the same to you and your family. It would be nice to have a few beers togather someday. We could talk about fly fishing or something.
