Not only does it put pressure on other pilots to be involved in PFT, it causes resentment among working pilots who did not PFT, since it demeans the profession as a whole.
I second bobbysamd's caution against making a career change while this industry is going through so many changes so quickly. There are still thousands of pilots who are out of work. Many, such as myself, will likely not find a decent job again. If you were twenty, I'd say get a degree in something else and flight instruct while building conections and friendships. Then, and ONLY then, would I recommend an airline career under these circumstances.
Good luck.
