Money!

Hi Samca
Long time no see! How are you doing?
"Money Money Money,,,,,Must be funny ,,,, In a rich mans World"
Quoting ABBA just after lunch firmly puts me in the geriatric end of the scale!
But I started of with great respect and small money.
And after over 30 years,no respect and ca 2,5 x average Industrial workers annual income,

I absolutely love my job, and I have found a cheap substitute for respect.
Power through use of common sense ( formerly part of airman-ship).
It is in my power to make my ship run safe efficient and on time.
The fact that Company and Pax generally do not respect me for that, does not bother me anymore.
I am good at what I do, a lot of people are not in jobs were they are happy and with a good self image!

If You have ever passed me in the terminal there is a chance You said to Your self:
" Dude, were did he park his Bomber!"

Take the Money and enjoy the Show.
Thanks for 2018
And a Prosperous New Year to all!
With Respect
