Well I'm trying to look at the bright side being a prospective pilot. Surely you think the benifits outweigh the bad aspects or else you wouldn't be doing it?

Sure it's a pain being out at hotels at weird hours but all the time off without having to write reports and such must be nice, not having to take your work home with you.
But isn't it a case of, if you love what your doing, then everything else will fall into place? You do love the flying don't you?
Me personally, I think what pilots have to put up with is a million times better than having a office job, that would drive me nuts.
Are you really unhappy with what your doing or just idly complaining? Maybe you'd be happier as a corporate pilot Doug?
