And they still can't fix a car properly. . . .

I'm sure her kids appreciate it now, but if they come to find this out let's say, 10 years from now.....what then :-/

What do you think kids would say if they knew that they were poor because their short sighted parent choose a career as a pilot?

When I was working as a plummer, I was earning up to $1200 a day. That's more than I ever made as a pilot or as an engineer(college degree in). It all depends upon what you are willing to do, whether it be to take off your clothes, or send thousands of people to their death like a war profiteer(Dick Cheaney).

As far as broadening my horizons go . . . Let's just say I could beat you pretty handily in Jeopardy. I'll leave it at that.

Lets not forget the guys at UAL, DAL, NWA, AA and all the rest who either had their pay halved or were laid off all together. We still are waiting for the coming blood bath when one or more of those companies tips for good.

Just a few years ago it was considered impossible to think of UAL going into BK protection. Rest assured no one is safe in this industry.
