Playing the Pilot Card

[dumblonde]

You gotta know the right way to play it, you cant just throw it at them. Talk to them for a while, when they get around to the question of what do you do, tell them that you work at the airport, they get curious, and say what do you do at the airport(getting worried that you throw bags) and you casually say I am a pilot, like it is no big deal. From there its panties off.

Exactly!

Obviously you don't know anything about women because all during high school you were watching Top Gun. Then you get to college, which is a flight school with 98 out of 100 being guys.

Whoops

ROFLMAO...i almost had pepsi coming out of my nose when i read that one! i can tell you that being a pilot when you're a chick is a lot more effective for picking up guys. even though i'm a private pilot, and i thoroughly explain what that is, guys seem to be pretty impressed. they think its cool and always wanna go for a flight (till i explain what a 172 is, then they pu$$ out). i don't tell em' that's what i do for a living though...i tell 'em that's what i do for fun.

HA HA HA. A chick that has to work on getting laid.

I bagged my doctor wife by telling her I was a broke commuter pilot trash flying a little 37-passenger puddle jumper for about $1500/mo, sleeping on an air mattress and making fancy meals out of ramen noodles with 2 other roommies.

Imagine her response....

"WHAAAAAAAAT???? You're a pilot and you make $1500/mo???"

"Yes ma'am!"

"Oh you poor thing.... here, let me take care of you."

Needless to say, my commuter years weren't that painful after that, occasional emotional trauma aside.

All how you play it......

Wow, there's more of you losers out there than I realized that don't know how to play it!!! You can't just drop it out there.
Btw, I'm not a weekend warrior, just haven't updated. I have about 1000 dual given now, I'm paying my dues, but man, I love the way the girls respond to pilots, even if I am only making 20K a yr.

1000 hours dual given! Wow! Son, I've got more hours on aircraft while unconscious in multi engined jets than you have flight time.
BTW, you had 300+ hours listed on your TT. Since you registered in Sep 04, that'd mean that you've done a helluva lot of flying since then IF you have 1000 hrs dual given. And FWIW, 1000 hrs dual given doesn't impress me.

I'm on wife V2.1 (she had an augmentation modification ... mmmm, nice mod; highly recommended). When I met her, she knew that I was a pilot (on a TDY with my Guard unit; she's an AF ICU nurse). I don't try to hide the fact that I'm a pilot; it's just that I found it to be a hindrance.
She had four types of men that she said she'd never date:
1) Guys with kids (I have two from a previous marriage)
2) White guys (she's Hispanic; I'm white as wonder bread)
3) Academy Grads (filled that square)
4) Pilots
In spite of that, she married me. Did I mention that she's a decade younger than me?
Stick with the pilot line, son. It's your strong card. Maybe you'll grow up one day and develop a personality.

Here's something from Smashmouth that reminded me of ya:
Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me
I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed
She was looking kind of dumb with her finger and her thumb
In the shape of an "L" on her forehead

You are hero material.

The janitors at Ford motor company make 75-90K a year. That's a better card to play.

Oh shush the janitor has way more to offer than the average pilot. You see they don't accept a 50% paycut to get new mops.
