in the case of the airline pilot
>most big career goal airlines will only really look at your application if you have a bachelor's>so rack up college debt for a degree you probably wouldn't want for any other reason>or have rich parents>flight training, no matter what, is ridiculously expensive>so save up for however many years and/or take out a loan to pay off the rest>so accumulate even more debt>or have rich parents>then you have to starve working a shitty pilot wageslave job for, if you're lucky, a couple years, maybe SLIGHTLY less if you really abuse yourself>then go to a regional and deal with the retard scheduling of a low seniority FO >then hope one of the big airlines takes you>not even mentioning the volatility of one moment seeming to have excellent job security then the next you think you're doomedthe fucking boomers that oversee this industry have no idea what the country has become for newer generations
