RUN - Bring a small bag w running shoes and gear. Hopefully you can wash up at the FBO. If not, go for a walk.

BOOKS - Read a book, watch a documentary or listen to a podcast.

As far as your days off, if your honey-dew list is done (it never is), volunteer to address an unmet need in your community.

Yep, happy to angry within minutes. That's the Fox News effect. Such a joy to fly with. Apparently the steady supply of alternative facts is quite addictive.

Laptop with internet and noise canceling headset is your friend.

Stare at your phone for hours on end, then get anxious when your battery gets low and you can't find the charger.

Keep a book in your bag and never read it.

Find a crappy illegal stream of whatever game you're inevitably missing.

If you put "I'm a pilot" on your tinder bio, will that even work? I remember back in my dating/flight training days, I'd mention that I was or was going to be a pilot, and the girls seemed just as disinterested as ever. Every years aviation loses more and more of its allure and romance, and nowadays it probably can't even get you laid haha
