To be honest mate I think you'd be better off back in IT.
Someone who seems to spend all his energy on whinging and railing against the world for not giving him the lifestyle he thinks he deserves ain't the kind of guy I'd want to be flying with.
What are you going to do when it all goes pear shaped one dark dirty night? burst into tears and say it's not fair that poor litte wingbar is being picked on by the flying gods AGAIN?
I did my CPL/IR in mid 2001 and it's taken me five years to get my first turboprop job. In that time I struggled doing any jobs to pay the bills and spent many many days as a freelance FI not earning a bean when the weather wasn't flyable. I stuck with it, DIDN'T BLUB and WHINGE, and am here flying EFIS TPs around europe at the age of 44.
So stop being "poor little wingbar" shut the whineing and pull yerself together man.
