Just a 1500 hour dude.

The job is in Boston. I've decided to take it for sure.

That job would have been worth leaving the industry for even before COVID

Sounds par for the course for the industry, albeit a better than average offer. Given that the account was created in 2017, there's no reason to suspect a troll here. Why do you think he's a troll?

because a 1500 hour pilot is really asking whether they should enter this industry right now or take a 6 figure secure job with benefits. If not a troll, maybe he is just trying to humble brag?
