Dunno why anyone would pursue flying as a career these days myself. I gave it away over a decade ago when I saw what lay in store for a career, and I don't regret it in the slightest.
In talking to two different 737 pilots recently on opposite sides of the country and neither would recommend it as a career knowing what they now know. They still like what they do, but neither would do it again.
As I tell people who ask me about flying now, if you want to enjoy flying, get a good-paying job doing something you'll enjoy, and fly for fun, when you want, where you want.
