Is it like any other job that it becomes repetitive and boring? NO
After 5 yrs of getting up at 4.00am to go to the airport do you feel like saying why did I do this job? YEP. Until I break out of the overcast at 500 feet and enjoy the best view in the world. Where else do you get to look cool in your Bay-Rans at 5am?
Do you get sick of the timetables early and late shifts? And then delays on top of that? ( never knowing what time you would be home for) NOPE
Due to the quick turn around at airports do crew have much of a chance to have to chat? OCCASIONALLY
Or is it all work when you arrive at the airport? YES
Do you get sick of listening to others in the airline profession while on stopovers? And wish you were home or out with real friends? Or what happens when you are with someone who does not have the same sense of humour as you? NO. NO, I see enough of my "real" friends. You enjoy each others sense of humour and get pissed.
Do you mind that you are always under the control of airline management and cant for e.g. set-up your own business and work for yourself? NO
Due to the number of limited jobs do pilots normally stay with the same airline? Depends what you want from your job and what kind of life style you want.
Is it the aim of most pilots to go into the management role? Not a chance!
