Harsh Realities of being an airline pilot
when you start your career, you aren't told about the bad part of being a pilot.
the uniform, the pay, the glamour, the travel, the jets, all are cool...BUT:
this thread is to awaken new or wanabee pilots to the reality of being a pilot:
1. you can lose your job at a moment's notice
2. management will tell you everything is OK and then lock up the airline the next day.
3. a wink and a nod at flying and breaking the rules...just this once
I hope you all will add to this.
