Here's an alternative: "Dear God, I'm so bored and poor. Please keep my wife from leaving me for someone who can spend more time at home and earn enough money to buy her a new car. Please, lord, keep the collections agent from calling my home tonight just because I'm a bit behind on my student loan ...

Not sure about the intelligence thing, but you definitely get my vote for most arrogant post ever. Sigh. Wordnet lists the following definition for arrogant: having or showing feelings of unwarranted importance out of overbearing pride; "an arrogant official"; "arrogant claims"; "chesty as a peacoc...

Why are ladies so obssessed with the term "Pilot"? Tell them that and they're head over heals in love with you... The whole top gun movie got to there head... lol. I've told a number of girls that and they look at me as if I'm some superhero... You're in dreamland my friend. The Top Gun movie got t...

Now, did the information packet come with a snip from "Focus on Family"? That would be some funny shit if it did. At least you'd know who the trust sides with. Seriously though. And, honestly, if you kept those "focus on family" snips with your pay-stubs, you'd have a far better avenue. Rather than ...

On Air Mikisew and Fort McMurray: Is the cost of living in Fort McMurray high? There is no question that it is. Is 11.50 per hour low? Air Mikisew has to compete with airlines in Edmonton, Calgary, Fort Smith. Taco Time on Franklin pays $13 per hour but only has to compete with the folks in the Pete...

If they can't find somebody they'll offer $12.50. Simple! If somebody takes the job- that's the market rate . Unfortunately Dockjock, you are right. STL Sky's the Limit: But I do suspect that you'd be the first to complain if you had to pay $5.75 for your coffee. Athabasca University offers several...

Jetpilot: Is Tim's a deadend job? I wonder. I don't work for Tim's, but the Western Market Manager for Tims slung coffee and doughnuts for a long time. Busted his ass and probably bounced a few rent cheques. He's now 41 and making six figs per year (before the IPO). Life keeps shitting on people who...

There is actually a great lack of respect for people who work at Tim Horton's. Some folks here think that they're better than their fellow human. To think that is ignorant to the extreme. Buck up and listen children. You are doing a job. You do it for money. The market decides what your pay will be....

Not personal at all. And not directed at you. More a random rant focused at youth who feel that the world owes them something. Me, I worked my ass off and finally get to have the privledge of working even harder. The more money you make, the more the risk. The game is about challanges, not gifts. Wo...

sky's the limit , I agree totally with you man. I mean why compare us only with better or worse, when there should be a standard in this industry, so that a guy working on a ramp, or instructor flying or who ever should be able to support itself and pay bills at least, and not dig him/herself in th...

Many random thoughts: Ask yourself this: Are you working a job, or a career? If Job; Go to Tim's. If career, keep reading. If you're in aviation to build a career, ask yourself this: Is it the first 5 years of your career that is important, or is it the middle bit, or is it the end bit? This is a ve...

High Flight poem, with commentary from DD
Cartoons seem to piss people off. Why not corrupt poetry? Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of earth Whoops then! Hope you pass the piss-test And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings; Actually, it wasn't silver. You should have deiced. Sunward I've climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth If y...
