"Pilots. Yes, older pilots do well but new pilots have to take on so much debt, only to make maybe $600/week. What many people don’t realize is they get paid for flight time, not actual time. And they are limited to something like 100-120hrs a month of flying, if they are given it.
That, and regional pilots are often away from home for days on end due to their routes. There is a lot of “paying your dues” for decades in that profession"

Zero sympathy. In every case the person that is whining did not think through their choices thus it is their problem to deal with. Everyone has a choice to stay with their job or find a new one. Stop acting like a victim.

Maybe it’s because they like their profession and just want to be able to live from it? Just a thought …

Buren, every profession has wage range. I may like being a Beach Lifeguard but I would not become one with the assumption that I’m going to be living in a $250K house - I would know that I’m going to be relegated to renting an apartment. Just because I went in to the profession doesn’t mean that now the employer needs to pay me more because I can’t afford a house and other nice things like an Engineer (that made wise choices).
Wow. You s#ck.
