Whoa nelly. I didnt put that out for flame bait.
I actually do enjoy my job, I was just offering the same advice that someone tried to give me a few years back.
No pissin contest here.
But, most likely by the time crazynuts climbs the stairs up to that shinny jet, he will be wishing he didnt come back to the airport, but I could be wrong to.
I remember telling the guy who told me a long time ago the very same thing, that there must be some kind of mistake, how can this be a bad thing to fly around in this sleek shinny airplane. That was back in 1989, both of the pilots had quite a few gray hairs, maybe they were ex Eastern, I didnt ask.
But there was most likely a signifacant story I'm sure that they could have told me, I only wish I knew what it was.
Congrats to the new commercial pilot, dont rush to hard into any of this and when you have to make some hard decisions, take your time. The stupid/rash decisions WILL come back to get you.
And one other thought, success in aviation is only done one way, and that way is ALL or NOTHING. Doing it half heartedly will only prolong the failure.
It is after all, better than working, right?
Good luck.
