KMS,
I have a life, thanks very much for caring though. My life however, extends beyond my career choice... I have plenty of other things to be proud of and discuss with people before getting into my job.
R22,
Its a pity some of you guys have lost your pride in showing people just what you have achieved.
You want to see pride?? Come to work with me(or any of my co-workers for that mater) for a windy day on a 130ft long-line in the mountians, or maybe filming a movie, or perhaps some night IFR in !!!!ty wx. I choose to show my pride in the efficiency, safety, and proffessionalism with which I do my job. What exactly are you trying to show people by wearing the giant watch with fifty time-zones on it, or the much debated cufflinks?
No "bloody cufflinks" required thank you very much. Face it folks, it's cheesy and juvinile, get over yourselves for Christsakes.
That's it for me on this one. You can all get your license number tatood on your hip, seen that one before...
