Please shine your shoes, and look as professional as you can, some pilots give me dirty looks cause I kind of have this James Dean thing going on with my hair, but other than that I try to always look and act as professional as you can, and most importantly have fun

Monkey-man, it gets better. The question simply comes down to how much can you take before it does get better? I'm not sure what sort of hardships SkyHigh has gone through but something terrible must have happened for such bitterness. You need to take the cheerleader's "rah-rah" speeches and throw them out, then take the doomsayer's "It sucks" and throw that out too. It's been 10 years since I've started and I'm now in a place where it's good, and realistically projected to remain good - and get better. Life and the job will be difficult for years but when I look back even those tough years had so many good things in it that it's hard to imagine not experiencing them.
I for one could not imagine doing anything else for a living. I'm not "rah-rahing" here, just saying that if you hang in there and take care of your family along the way then it get's better. I think you'll be glad you stuck in there.
Cheers,
