Gnad,
You know you're just another airline pilot, right? The fact that cadets can eventually do it, while never having any actual flying experience, is the whole point: If you want to do some challenging flying that requires skill and experience to avoid hitting the ground, where talent and brainpower mean something, go do some soaring or aerobatics or join the air force (but don't fly jet transports) or fly helicopters.
If you want to work in a difficult industry where discipline, knowledge and a bit of experience and training will get a valuable and therefore high-paying job done, and where a single accident can break a company while taking 300-400 people down at the same time, stick with jet transports that come with all the fancy auto-systems for you to monitor, all the dispatch/load control/engineering/operations support, and pat yourself on the back for pulling off yet another easy manual landings at the end....unless the weather is a bit dodgy, then, as per policy, let the autoland take care of that too.
Don't worry, you're still an important (though easily replaceable) employee, but you're not that special, and if a 23-yr-old, 200-hr SO can do it, so can you. Before you argue about all that amazing "commanding" you do, pick up any book on leadership to find out just how little leading and commanding you do, unless you're one of the 10% that actually knows the difference between leadership/commanding and pretending to lead/command while simply being good at quoting manuals.
Have a nice day!
