Doggonit! I didn't want to be the first to comment on this one, but here goes:
I used to enjoy having a nice job, and I received a decent salary for it.
However, the owner of the company was in trouble and decided to sell the airplane I was flying and managing for him. I decided to strike it out on my own and become self employed as a contract pilot.
THAT was when my profits took a Steep Nosedive!
What a bummer...
