The 'self starter' has always succeeded and those that give up or fall by the wayside have in fact 'self selected' themselves out. Flying does that. You are absolutely right about crew rooms too, whiling away hours telling war stories and drinking bad coffee has always been a tedious waste of time. Some might call it networking; but do you want to do that with... people who do that? Your approach is refreshing and will be appreciated by those you inevitably will sit next to on long sectors where you have plenty of time to drink bad coffee and listen to war stories as there isn't much else to do... except prepare for the next great step. Enjoy Art, you and those like you deserve to succeed! Nice one Art, you will not be surprised to know that aviation has always been like this.
