Your arrogance and closed-mindedness on so many levels shows what a fool you are. I have met plenty (a majority, in fact) of pilots who can do nothing more than fly a plane. Take the cockpit out of their lives, and they will stop functioning --literally. I know well not only because of my past airline experience, but also because my father flew the DC-8 and 747-100. He and all his buddies either died a few years after they retired, blew up like balloons from sitting at home all day, became alcoholics, or turned into miserable human beings. I don’t think the air in the cockpit has changed much over the past decade. In fact, aviators with their tendencies and your attitude abound. Therefore, to you and those like you who think they can change profession so easily, I suggest you apply to grad school as well, and while you’re at it, gain a few social skills in the process (you have a lot of work to do in that department). And trust me, you wouldn’t get much respect from academia, unless you went to your local community college. My philosophy professor would always use pilots as a prime example to illustrate Plato’s “Allegory of the Cave†(or should I say, cockpit?). Moreover, do you actually think people in the corporate world think of you as more than a bus driver? Hey, I don’t need to spell it out; your name says it all. The day you will realize that you are not a heart surgeon, a senator, or Donald Trump is the day you will understand where you fall in the big scheme of things. You are insulting to those who perform their jobs with pride and dignity, and so far on these boards you have insulted plenty of people, including your peers.
