b777 pilot I am inclined to agree with your sentiments on this one.
There are far too many Pilots around these days who I think have to pinch themselves every morning cos they just cannot believe that they are sitting in a big shiny jet, travelling around the world seeing places they could never afford to visit and staying in Hotels they could only dream of staying in and who because of this are prepared to do the job for "nothing" almost.
Their lack of their professional worth sickens me.
