1. How are you going to be effective at job 1, after you've
done job 2?

4. That begs the question.
Why doesn't job 1 pay enough to eliminate job 2.

This is only a little worse than my schedule for the last 6 weeks
I didn't have any days off in November. The circles under my eyes are getting darker, I must admit.

3. Oh my dear yvr girl.......
You're going to need more than our sympathy......

But just what I'm not sure.....:shrug:

Is it just for next week? If so, then you'll probably be OK.....

But I can't see you doing this indefinitely, and that's for sure!

Be sure to eat well, and get as much rest as you can, OK?



:loveya: :hug: :pals:

14. You need to get your commercial rating so you can get rid of
those crap jobs and be the bush pilot you've always wanted to be...imagine, you and your DeHavilland Beaver with the turbo conversion and floats...carting those walthy clients out to the lake for some fly-fishing...you drop them off, then turn the Beaver around for takeoff...you glide faster and afster across the mirrored water with the growl of the propellor in your ears...you feel the Beaver come on plane on the floats, and unstick it with a gentle tug on the yoke, and you're airborne...

Well, I may not have helped you with your job situation, but I bet I've given you some nice dreams to have tonight!

17. I actually have my commercial
Flying jobs are hard to come by because there are so many VERY experienced pilots out there to compete with.

19. Ah, but you can dream, yes?
We must have our dreams. As you are drifting of to the land of Nod tonight, visualize the things I mentioned in my post...it may not help you with the job situation, but you'll get to sleep faster and wake up more refreshed. Trust me on this one.

23. But the hot date with GC would get you all worked up and
unable to sleep, yes?

Go with my suggestion, and drift off peacefully, with a smile...
