Default Re: Those darn OVERPAID pilots!!!!

Oh, that is so good! People all the time assume my DH makes a lot of money b/c they may hear that pilots make a lot an hour, but I have to tell them how few hours they actually get paid vs. being at work. People were shocked to find out that we were below gov't poverty level for a 3 person family during DH's first year at SkyWest.

But I did read an article some place about who you are supposed to give a cash tip to when they help you out/take you some place and so on. Airline pilots were on the list. LOL It said that people should tip the pilots 10% of their ticket price. Of course not that anyone would ever dream of doing that....but wouldn't that be awesome!! LOL
