Yes, and we shouldn't say HIJACK, either.

How about if we keep the thread on track, shall we?

If you're not interested in addressing the OP's question, then no need to post.

Are you kidding?!:confused: Compared to working in a cubicle this job is WAAAAAAY better. I did computer network design and support for 2 years and hated it for about 23 out of 24 months. The pay is about comparable to what I was making doing the networking thing. I knew I wasn't going to be home every night and personally I don't mind that. Nothing like "day 4 sex" when you get home and find the girlfriend wearing something skimpy:D

Unless the wife walks in on you unexpectedly:D

Well, my prior life was a desk job as a customer service rep for a major home phone provider that I had for 11 years. The job itself stunk, so I love regional flying a heck of a lot more(being on reserve, I keep thinking, at my old job I would've loved to have gotten paid to sit around and watch TV, but now I'm dying for that phone to ring and get called in...so I find it a good thing that I actually want to work...which wasn't the case before).

Now taking this job, I had to take a 50% paycut, but figured I am still making a little more than when I 1st started out with my old job, plus in 2 years(hopefully) I'll even out to what I was making before(and eventually surpass it).

So I love the job, just waiting for the pay to get better.

Looking forward to work is priceless. This is the only job (and I've held more than just a few) that I haven't dreaded waking up for. It's far from perfect, and I hate the Industry, but nesting myself in the flight deck makes life good. I wouldn't ever trade it in to fly a desk.
