So, you hate where you are so much that you are willing to take a 50% pay
cut and an additional 45 minute commute.


Not quite willing, but considering it. It's a long story, but the short
version is that I great and forwardly-mobile team got bought out, subdivided
and turned into something from Office Space. For example I overheard a
manager telling his team to try answering calls on the second ring instead
of the third. Seriously.

Everybody is hiring instructors.


Heh! That's the impression I'm getting. It sounds like I'd be better off
working part time at a local airport and chasing spammers around on the
side. If I'm lucky I'll be able to swing this into a half-time job.

Eventually, somebody is going to have to start giving a few pay raises.


That's kinda what I think, too. It's a shame that a working CFI can't earn
enough to support a family just about anywhere in the Pacific Northwest.
