as I said, what makes you think you deserve more than 22k your first yr. And i know you mean first yr because at your second yr your grossing more than that. Most first yr fo's barely know there ass from there elbow year 1. there is a learning curve son, all industries have them. Ours is just a little more pronounced.

you get what you pay for. perhaps more knowledgable candidates could be attracted with a higher salary?

I also substitute teach on the side.. im in florida and it brings in 80$ a day before taxes.. If you can find a superintendent school or a private school it pays in the range of 100$ a day.. Along with my W2 this year i also found out that they automatically deduct 7.5% of my income(tax sheltered) and put it into a 401k.. its nothing big but its something!!

Also, Ive got a friend that owns a casino party business.. They cater to charities, organizations, whoever that want a casino themed party.. you show up an hour before the party and deal blackjack, poker, roulette and craps.. Parties usually run about 3 hours and it never pays less than 25$ an hour!! Sometimes you get tips too! I was comped the training for it but otherwise it should cost a couple hundred bucks for the training.. During the holiday season ill easily pull in a couple hundred bucks a week.. During the downseason they act as a HR hub for other party companies and call you for random jobs usually on the weekends setting up parties or catering banquets.. I know this is a unique situation but a good site to check out random gigs like this one would be on www.craigslist.com search jobs and youll find something you can do no matter how minimal your training in other feilds..

Don't forget cleaning video booths at porn stores, Cleaning Gay bathhouses in San Francisco, and taking the trash out at abortion clinics.

However keep in mind that the capacity of planes flying now in at the regionals, used to be at the majors. While 20 years ago regionals paid crap too, the flying could have been in a Navajo, or a B99 if one was lucky, maybe a Shorts too.

Now it is 70-90 seat jets. Too many people think the size of the jet counts as part of the income somehow. I could be happy flying a C172 for good pay in a good location. Its just an airplane, not a key to happiness.

It's crazy but I'd have to be a 15 year captain at Horizon flying the Q400 to break what I make flying a 182. I still have the advantage though, I get paid from the minute the hanger door opens until it closes. Yes, I'm happy to "supplement" my crappy income Some months I supplement more than I "earn". My wife sometimes ask why I just don't go to work full time for my client. I just don't have the heart to tell her that right now I'm a stupid regional airline pilot without SJS.

For jets or for trucks?

I hear long-haul trucking pays well too.

Excuse me.....$65,000 is pathetic for 20 months on the job????

Whatever you are smoking...let me have some.

You are entitled to your opinion. My opinion is that it is pathetic. It is not 20 months from your first day out of college like an engineer. For most of us it was 3 years or more just to get the job in the first place. 65K is not much money. I have made much more than that before I was a pilot and I can say it goes very fast. I thought you considered yourself a professional pilot with peoples lives at stake.
