Thumbs up IR ??

Id like to think that having an Instument Rating would make me a better pilot than not having one.
If I were interveiwing Id hire the guy with an IR and not the guy without it....
Getting a job in the Delta lets say, sure you wont be doing ILS's everyday but you never know when you might have too, doing a charter to Vic Falls etc or even going into Joburg airspace in your 206.
IFR flying breeds good procedures that you could and maybe even SHOULD be applying when flying VFR.
So its worth having ..Hey itll save your life ..ONE DAY!
Just how professional do YOU want to be at the end of the day?
cheers
