To all Upbeat Airline Pilots

Love my job as well. It is pretty much a 8-4 monday-friday flying job. Home every night with the family which to me right now is worth a lot. Would I do it again. In a heart beat.
 
The reason you think everybody here is so unhappy is BECAUSE you haven't been here long. Come to NJC and you'll find most, if not all of the folks are somewhere between upbeat and extremely dedicated to what they do.

The internet is not a good indicator of job satisfaction

Holy Crap Batman, I agree with Jtrain on something......


but then I am a 135 guy, maybe why I am happy....lol
 
Love my job as well NOW...

I spent my time in the USAF and then another 7 years at 2 different airlines, both of which were (are) in a downward spiral.

I never wanted to be a 121 pilot, but it was all about timing... The day I officially burnt out of the airline rat race I was supposed to be heading to work and was instead at the point that I was standing in my kitchen with a fedex box in one hand my ID badge and SOP in the other. The next day I got the phone call for a position that I had interviewed for months before and then never heard a thing about again. I was really at the point that I was over and done with aviation.

Now I'm back in the employ of the feds, flying 4 days a week and usually have a weekend off unless something really F'd up happens. I'm home every night for the most part, I can have a life that resembles something "normal" when it comes to scheduling and I don't have to worry about the associated BS that takes place in the airlines.

So would I do it again, possibly. It got me through the gap to get where I am. So for that I'm happy....
