The Whole Pilot Thing

Hey all

I am a school leaver, on way to uni to get a good degree before hopefully doing the airline pilot "thing". I just have a couple questions first.

Firstly, both GAPAN and the airlines comment about the shortage of talented young pilots entering the profession. Is this true, and is there a shortage of pilost developing? I ask this as I have also considered careers in Management and other such things, and am trying to weigh up the pros and cons.

Also, how many of you still enjoy your job? Would you still recommend being an airline pilot?

Many thanks

ETC
