I know none of you will follow my advice, but I will say it neverthess.

Run as fast you can. This industry is done. It ain't worth it, the money is gone, the T&C will get worse and worse.

The job is boring like hell. Shift work destroys your health, your soul and your family life. You will stay in mediocre hotels, work like a slave and the automation will kerp you going like a patient in a coma on life support. The glamour of long haul is all but a distant memory. Productivity pay will be the standard globally, and you will compete with labor from second and third world countries.

If you are young enough, go back to Uni and aim at a career with a better future and a more attractive lifestyle.

All pilots who lost their jobs will return. They don't have alternatives apart from driving an Uber.
