Well, they quote the comic that says "As a kid I never wanted to grow up. I was scared of needing to act like an adult and having to work for a living. Then I decided to become a pilot!" (and they linked to you too!) Then they debated whether that's true anymore, with all the long hours and stuff that airline pilots put up with, and hearing all the complaints. But then, comparing it with the business world in general and with other professions, they conclude that it really is worth it, and it does beat working for a living!
Frankly, it reminds me of the video games industry. There have been so many complaints, stories of horrendous work hours, people sleeping under desks, unpaid overtime, etc. etc. I've heard lots of naysayers, lots of people burnt out of the industry. But I personally haven't experienced any of that, and even if I have, it's better than when I was in school, and PAYING to do that kind of work! Whenever people would complain, I would remind them "remember, you're working on VIDEO GAMES... like, every kid's dream. It sure does beat working for a living. (no I'm never gonna grow up!
) Well, they say if you find something you love doing, you'll never have to work a day in your life.
