Most of the time a pilot just gets to push and pull buttons and switches, seated in an airconditionned aircraft, getting served coffee by an F/A.
Compare that to working on an understaffed tarmac, exposed to the weather elements, noisy engines and APU' s every single day, having little to no time to take a seat or a sip of coffee because you are under time pressure of delayed flights.
And you are using this to say other jobs are better than piloting? Not selling it to me, I'm afraid. Give me a warm comfortable flightdeck anyday.
