I used to get that all the time when I flew freight. I also got the variant "So when are you gonna fly the real airplanes?" Come to think of it, i still get that one now and I fly for a regional(ashamed to say I went down that road). People just don't understand that flying freight was the last real flying gig that I have had. Now I just feed bananas to the monkey pushing the buttons. I just tell people that I am a bus driver. Almost the truth. Some people are still interested after that. Screw the rest.

Just tell them "I'm gonna fly real airplanes when I tired of job security and making a living wage!"...

I don't claim to be a freight-dog (or dawg) anymore; my current job is much to cushy. Recently we flew a charter to a city that we don't normally serve and got to overnight at the local Holiday Inn. The desk girl asked who we flew for and when we said "FedEx" she laughed. "I've seen their trucks, but they don't have airplanes do they?" We explained that in fact, yes, we do have a few airplanes. She was convinced we were just pulling her leg, but she was kind enough to offer an introduction to the ASA crews that were staying there..."maybe they can help you out with a job."
To think they let these people drive cars and breed!!

PS. Not trying to dis any ASA crews

Tell the girls you are a dolphin trainer at Sea World. You will have much better odds. If you are in Canada tell them you are a world class curling team coach.
