Try retooling your long term goals. Flying "little planes" (words of another regional FO when talking about the fractional/corporate industry) is working well for thousands of aviatiors.
Good Luck! |

I am done. You can have your poverty wages and Alpa stickers that lead to... NOTHING!!! I am under the influence of beer, but nevertheless you can have it all. I am done chasing the carrot and sacrificing my life to this cr@p industry. I want a family and I just can't picture myself saying: "Billy you can't go to college because daddy likes to fly and infact he likes it so much that he does it for free" I am trying my luck overseas..I will give it one more shot. Rant over...

No crying here. Some treat this as a career and a way to earn a living, and expect to be rewarded for their efforts accordingly. It's not only about the love for flying, you know. If you see nothing wrong with the amount we get paid, then you have a problem. We all know what we were getting ourselves into, but the times have slightly changed since then, and so have future perspectives. You cannot blame him, or anyone else who wants to leave this industry in the U.S for greener pastures overseas, where being a pilot still has some reward left in it. I think we can all agree that we need to get paid more. All I am saying is I don't see any reason why anybody can jump/is jumping on Rascal's back for this, the frustration/anger are fully justifiable. |

Nope, don't blame him for wanting to leave. If I hated my job and had little hope of improving my situation, I'd leave too. But when that day comes, I'll just leave - I won't come on this or any other forum full of airline pilots and whine to everyone else about how bad things are.
Well to each his own, this is a forum after all, used for discussion, as well as occasional venting to some who may understand. |
