I almost didn't post this after I wrote it because I bet that no one will care, but here it is anyways:



Perhaps I should expand on what I meant when I said that "instructing isn't for me". This isn't a sob story or anything, just trying to clear the air. People take EVERYTHING out of context, so I am ready for someone to take this out of context as well.

I have been instructing for a while. I am currently instructing. I look at the other instructors and see that most students would learn better from the other instructors. There are some students that I really work well with, but I don't think they learn as much from me. I get along with them well, but I have never been the world's best teacher. They made me a teacher's aid in high school for photography because I was good at it. They found out that just because you know something, doesn't mean that you can teach.

Anyways, there are some instructors that would rather instruct for a while building time to get to a good regional, but I would rather not instruct, I would rather work at a less desirable regional to build the time I need to go somewhere desirable. Plus, where I instruct, I could make much more money even at places like Great Lakes than I am instructing.

Anyways, that is why I am wondering who is hiring people with low multi time pilots.
