Re: For Lloyd..and those who think there is to much 'negativ
IMO people aren't "bitter" at the flying career, they are jealous of other careers that pay well. That is what makes then seem "bitter". In short they want to have their cake and eat it too. They want to fly because it's a fun job but then they are jealous of others who make more.
My brother in law graduated college recently (23 years old) with a CS degree, he is making $80k base and another $1k/week in overtime. That is so much money he doesn't know what to do with it. Am I jealous? Heck yeah I am. Made me a little bitter with flying, I must say. My first YEAR out of college I made about what he makes in a month...
