5 years at a Loco in the UK expect a command and a salary of £100k.
and that's flying a medium jet on shorthaul routes for a loco!
What planet is this on?

After winter furlough, multiple base changes, plus huge positioning and dual housing expenses, I don't make even a third of that - as a captain. And if the 'trouble and strife' gets fed up with me being based in another country, you can cut that salary in half again.

Good job with prospects? You're having a larf, surely....
