I'm sorry, Flyaway, that you are so reluctant to do washing up. Who does it at home? do you leave your dirty clothes on the floor for your mum to deal? do you walk the dog without moaning? do you do anything without moaning?

This is a GRANNY RANTING. I've had to wash dishes and clean up **** all my life, and make the best of it, and do a good job of it. And never got paid a penny. I'm still doing exactly that, without complaining.

I was going to make a suggestion that a different sort of flying organisation that exists mostly on everybody mucking in and doing the dirty work might offer more flying opportunities, and does indeed offer more flying opportunities to teenagers who are willing to get stuck in and show up reliably. And use initiative to invent paying jobs on the airfield, if only washing cars.

But I don't think you have the qualities required.
