Bus drivers DO NOT.....
-do a weight and balance before each flight
-load an FMS
-kill a small tree everytime they get a "flight relase"
-brief pax
-wear professinol cloths
-deal with VERY complex systems
-care what the hell the wind or ceiling or visibility is
-have a chance of getting to hang out with a hot flight attendant, pardon me
-do not do a huge fuel calculation or preflight inspection....for the most part
-have to worry about a bunch of different complex human factors up at flight level 390 or any flight level for that matter
I could go on and on....but i dont ahve time.....I personally think its what you think of yourself, and also what you put into the job.
Let me say, some people just seem to not see any of the good in flying....Doug Taylor, whenever i read stuff that he writes it's almost always positive, and he seems to make the most of his job, he seems to try and make a good time out of anything.....thats what i want to be like, and i thing other should try hard to do....even though its very hard....because some parts of this life just suck |
