Yeah, I bet all the GoJet guys should of been warned about their foolishness prevalent in the regional industry, but ruhh roh, they didn't

 

Congrats Carl!!

Where ya flying these days if you don't mind me asking?

 

I had the biggest smile on my face the last day I had to fly at my regional pilot job and went to fly corporate 5 years ago. I still have that smile,I may have to go to plastic surgeon to have it removed.

 

First enjoy it. Second, why would you want it removed?. Third, if you really want it totally gone, get divorced.

 

I know some people who finally found their smile when they got divorced!

I'm one of those, but the first 6-12 months....nothing but **** and vinegar my friend. It takes a while to smile after you find yourself with 372 dls to your name while crashing on a friend's couch.

 

This is a fact.

 

This is also a fact.

 

You may think I'm crazy, but I still love flying and it puts a smile on my face every time I do it. Everything else is crap because of it, the love for flying is a freaking disease, it's a drug that ruins everything else, but I still love it and can't get enough of it.

Now I'm going to bed with a smile on my face!!

 

I really am glad that flying puts a smile on your face. Flying a trip with pilots whom are happy, makes this job much easier, but this is a job. Please do not forget that. Flying the -145 into DCA on the river visual on a clear night with no A/P or F/D is a blast. What concerns me, is you believe, and are okay with Silverwings 'ruining everything else.' Your friends, families, and hobbies, are what will make you happy long term. Do not for get that, otherwise you will wake up one morning and flying will not be filling that void. Continue enjoying flying, but more importantly, enjoy your time not flying - more. That way when the flying becomes not so exciting, and not so addicting, and you find yourself questioning your career, you do not become disappointed. You have a job that you enjoy, and the time off and money to peruse your real passions and relationships.

Good luck!
