If you are trying to get with somebody, which presumably this dude was trying to do, the right answer to her question about your occupation is always a nonchalant, "A little of this and a little of that".
Mystery. Intrigue. The key to all hook-ups.
No charge for the advice. 😉

Attitude, communication and the ability to mentor an FO is more valuable than 20 years of experience if you’re just a grumpy old pilot. Now, I will agree that if the 20 year captain has a good attitude and all of that experience, then you have hit a gold mine of knowledge as an FO and better be learning from them as much as you can.
