'chimbu' sadly that's more true than funny I suspect.
'CC' I know a Capt exactly as you described, never married & now done the deed with 3 kids all under 6 & in his 50's....interesting times ahead for him
I recall during WW3 an older Ansett 737 driver (Capt) was on his 3 rd wife (imported wife #3) & even then he was starting to think I want out as she wanted a pool to go where the tennis court was & that was just a start!
As a side note I said to him (as I was teaching him to fly toy planes at my club) what are you doing these days? He said still in transport, as a taxi driver !!!!
My ex father in-law (ironical I know!) worked 'till around late 60's & didn't have any other interests & when he retired he went OS on his first holiday to Bali, they brought him home in a pine box.
I'd recommend not to stay too long in any job.
Thread drift I know bur such a subject heading is rife for it
