A bad day for an International Airline Captain.
Had to do three trips to Paris in 30 days, there is an algal bloom in
the Med. and the lobsters are off. The big worry is whether to buy a
castle in the south of France or that penthouse in Monarco as an
investmennt property.
A bad day for a GA pilot.
It's 7pm on a Saturday, just knocking off after doing 60 hours so far
in the week. Have to go in at 6 in the morning to wash 3 aircraft, none
of which he has flown in the previous week. The young female instructor
(who has flown all 3 aircraft the previous week) can't help you washing
the aircraft because she has flown the 6 days previously and has to
have a day off. Your wages from the week are gone already and the
grocery list is a choice between some brown rice or a pumkin, and the
boss wants you to contribute $100 for a surprise birthday party for the
young female instructor. You also have an attitude problem because you
suggested maybe 9am might be a better time to start on Sunday morning.
You blokes want to get on with life and stop wingeing, just like the
International Airline Pilots.
