Don't even try and compare our job set to a doctor...you can't write a $50k check and 90 days later be a doctor.

If you want more pay go to corporate, you are dispatch, mx coordinator, customer service desk, flight attendant, pilot, cleaner, and sometimes chauffeur. That's why they make more money.

It almost sounds like really like what you do but want more money. Everyone wants that. Judging by your past you are more than qualified to make a jump to another more lucrative position somewhere else.


Not complaining, no bad day at the office, just a piece to make people think. Nor do I think 50 to 80k for a 50 is all that bad. But not everyone makes that and you know this.


That said this is kind of an odd statement coming from someone with www.doihaveafuturehere.org as their signature.
