He's got a point though. It is becoming a dull profession. The majority of the guys posting here aren't actually doing it for a living and they don't know. Route variety and job satis is waining and large numbers of guys are retiring early. Don't shoot the messengers.
Is it really the proffession it once was? Sure, you've got to be on the ball but only about 5% of the time is it actually stimulating work.

Yeah it's still a good job but he has got a point!
