Same old story...

Hey there,mate...The same crap everywhere,except you're flying for a legacy carrier,which can be counted on the fingers of your one hand...People doing the job are not interested any longer,no respect,average salaries,simulator checks have become a formality,nobody's interested what you know and how you can handle an a/c as long as you remember the button-pushing sequence...A lot of hard work and it's a game over without a simple "thanks" once you lose your medical.
Every time I go to fly I expect to be treated like a nobody by ops,management, ATC , security personnel and even cabin crew.No respect,no rights and you're always the one to blame for everything...Though I still love the job and always wanted to do it,I would strongly recommend anyone thinking of it as a profession to be very careful.But,good luck,anyway,I'm sure those who are willing to change things will find their better place with greener grass,stay on the positive side
