Sure there are days when "it's just a job".. .. .I suppose there are days when any job is just a job. Despite this most Pilots I have met take a great deal of pride in what they do. The job is often routine but that is really the objective.. .. .I don't know many Pilots who aren't very good at what they do and put a lot of work into achieving that result. Few flyers give up an airline job to do something else and that probably says a lot.. .. .But yes there are days when it is just a job !
