If your airplane was getting old when you were born
If you have not done a daylight takeoff or landing in the past 6 months
If ATC advises you of smoother air at other altitudes, and you don't care
If you've lost over 45% of your hearing because the aircrafts sound proofing was removed to save weight
If you wear the same shirt to work for a week, and nobody complains
If other airlines wait for you to test the squall line first
If center mispronounces your callsign more than three times during a single flight
If your director of operations mysteriously increases your max takeoff weight during the holiday season
If you refuse to accept vectors around weather and choose to stck to the shortest route
If you call the hotel van to pick you up and they have no idea wher you are on the airport
If other airlines post guarads on their aircraft when your mechanics are on the ramp
If your company declares bankruptcy to clean out the seniority list
If fuelers require cash up front before pumping gas
If the same model of aircraft you fly can be seen in museums
if the aircraft has more than 50 collared circuit breakers
If you hear about aircraft with flushing toilets and say, " well don't that beat all....what will they think of next
If mothers tell their children to stay away from you in terminals because they think you live there
If you show up early and a general aviation pilot asks you to fuel his plane and carry his bags
If you think a room with more than one vending machine is a food court
If you think ALPA is dog food
If "real" airline captains come to look at your plane and nostalgically say, "I flew this once when I was young"
If most ground stations for your onboard navigation equipment have been decommisioned
If 10% of your basic operating weight is paint and doubling patches
I get a kick out of this everytime!!!
Enjoy
