He means me, I'm sure. I'm the bad guy cause I think people have to think darwinistically about their careers. Of course I have sympathy for the individual people who lose their livelihoods but that gets lost in the mix cause of my main belief.

Art and money make strange bedfellows.

When it comes down to it, money and pretty much anything but money make strange bedfellows.

Thanks John, I really am enjoying the tea. Not sure any of the ones I've tried before will become my 'daily', but I'm enjoying rotating them in to keep things fresh. Cheers!

John,
First let me say that I wish you good luck in your new career. It's good just to have a job in these times, let alone one that you like. Many people are far less fortunate.

At every career crossroad, I've taken the safe route and picked money over what I loved. Photography was the first one I took the opposite road on, even though I had grown up with D-76 in my veins in the '60s. Becoming a professional pilot was the next love I passed on. Looking back, I think I saw both in the same light. Much like you pointed out the amatuers that dilute the photography profession, there are pilots that will fly anything for nothing, always has been, always will be.

Like 99% of people, I've hated most of the many many jobs I've had. But I have found a somewhat rewarding career in aviation safety that pays very well and is steady for the last dozen yrs.

Saddle up, John. The ride ain't over 'til it's over.
