Dear Mr/Ms Sad,

You say that you would like some "interest and meaning" from your job, and a big reduction in bs.
I suggest that others here have already described your options.
1. there is no easy panacea. No-one has one. If they do, they do not talk about it as we'd all be there sharpish.
2. You could take what is called an "instrumental" approach to your job. As Mr Rotor says, turn up, do your job and get some interest and meaning from somewhere else. Slasher has some good ideas on what to do. Another friend of mine got a share one of those nasty little acrobatic jobs and clowns around in that. (You can tell I'm not impressed)
3. if you want some interest and meaning from your current employer, get in there and become a manager and aim to become Fleet Director. Talk to some other Fleet Directors. (Start asking around - who is out there that will talk straight? You would be surprised....).
The thing that Fleet Directors hate most??? Pilots who will not properly engage with the airline managers and management processes..................so go help them out.
