Jerrkin' off and eatin' Cheetoes is more fun, but it doesn't pay the bills.
Just curious, have you experienced Alaska, especially flying in the outback? Before I got too old and health issues got in the way, I loved flying open cockpit aircraft in and out of grass fields or no fields. Alaska has its own set of dangers that are unique to anywhere else I have ever been or flown. Lots of places are totally inaccesable except by air or by snow machine in winter. There is a real need for good pilots and the support infrastructure there, but lots of danger everywhere you turn. Good luck with the dream.
I love what I do for a living. Honest work that keeps the lights on.
I like the work I do and the pay is good. I've been there for 35 years. What sucks is three of us do most of the work while the rest do crossword puzzles and play on their cell phones most of the day. The bosses know it and don't have the balls to tell them to get to work. There are times when we are waiting on parts or work to come in. These guy do what they want to even when there is work that they can do. This is the down side to unions. This is the largest adult day care site in north central Oklahoma.
Workin in oil patch, damn glad to have the job that I've got.
I retired from state gov. ...I know what you mean.LOL

I like the work I do in an oil and tire shop but am tired of the lazy boss that let's people get away with not showing up or not following policy. Got 3 good workers the rest just take up space. On the plus side I get to meet some really strange customers.
I can't complain about my job but after 30 years and 8 months of my blue collar job it's now time for a little 'ME' time while I can still do some of the things I enjoy......my last day is this coming Tues. the 31st.
Retirement - I think my favorite part is getting two weeks vacation twice a month.
