Maybe Its just me but how many of you get irritated when someone says ""So have you always wanted to be a pilot?""

Some time I feel like answeing by saying well I wanted to be something else but I had to settle for this.. Oh and the classic one.. are you the pilot or copilot..

ok mini rant over

Well... I usually skirt the issue. I hate talking about it. I love what I do, but I hate talking about it. Too many questions. Some guys here say they work for Hotels.com! I love it!

Actually, I only considered being a pilot once I figured that the whole "contract killer" thing wouldn't work out.

Or......."oh, you fly one of those puddle-jumpers. So what is your route?"

I tell most people that I am in the "Blue-Man Group". Makes for an interesting conversation.

"So how long have you been flying?"

About two and a half weeks, and they already have me flying passengers.
