My God, man. Where do you work that would give you such a low opinion of your colleagues? A good number of people I work with have graduate degrees. And no one gets in without at least a bachelor's (and within the last 10 years) a high GPA.

Well, that’s because pilots are not an educated professional group, or not in the sense that most people think of. We are blue-collar, union trade workers. Our profession is more aligned with unionized plumbers and pipe fitters than lawyers and engineers.
Need proof? Just look at how the majority of pilots act in the hotels on overnights. Just like the majority of flight attendants are not trying to get you alone in a hotel room so they can file a complaint and get you fired. I would guess that the majority of pilots who post on this site would never have the opportunity to be alone in a hotel room with a member of the opposite sex in any case. And of course keeping diversity in mind, and or find themselves with a member of the same sex or non binary/gender fluid or any other person in a hotel room. Now as far as engineers go, those dudes know how to party! ;) |

Pilots have more anti social conspirophiles than any (supposedly educated) professional group I have encountered. The banter is more aligned with what you’d find in an auto-mechanics shop than in educated work settings and they think they are better for it.

Get to hotel, try to eat, maybe workout/get out for a walk, get some sleep, etc. Quite the quintessential example of uneducated behavior....

I wouldn’t say that but there’s definitely a lot of dorks. Probably amplified by them being in charge of a plane. My only complaint is that pilots always have a bad taste in movies and tv shows, entertainment in general.
