What to do after I quit flying ?

I have often being ask what would I do after I quit flying. It has always been assumed I would quit after a few years & move on to something better & more solid. What people do not know is, many of my colleagues do stay on for a long long time. Like a friend from another airline, she worked till retirement age at 55. I had met her when she took my flight a few years back. It was a long flight & she talked to me & ask me about my company, just to pass the time I guess.

Anyway, no harm planning for the future right? Another colleague of mine & a good friend said we should attend some courses- To net work & check out some possible opportunities. So we did. We signed up for one of those courses that's very popular now. I would not say which here because, even though I dont find it very helpful. Still I'm sure it could help certain people. The contents is pretty common sense.

Like they stress we should hang out with positive people. Because being with them you'll be inspired to work harder & be more positive, which is a per-requisite in fulfilling goals. They site some studies that reveal our friends & colleagues greatly impact the choices we make in life, therefore we need to be selective with people whom we hang out with most. I was thinking you dont need studies to know that right? I see many people taking notes & later go up to the instructor asking multiple questions. Me & my friend were more interested in checking out who are the people who goes to such events.

Many are middle aged possibly got retrenched. Or maybe they just want a second career. We were busy discussing our theory when this guy started talking to us & eventually ask for our numbers to 'keep in touch' ...lol.... In all by the end of the course, we had collected more than 10 numbers, all male, all insisting on keeping in touch ....lol....

Please keep in touch baby ...lol...
