I worked the ramp when the flying got slow...not bad, you build contacts and reap the travel benefits. However, not to sound like a snob or anything, but I always felt weird, and never knew how to answer the question when people said "wait, you're a college grad, and you're a pilot but you're working here?"...still searching for a good answer, and not make myself look like a total degenerate.

I did have to answer similar questions when I worked jobs as a line cook and instructed. I just learned to not reveal my background. Then again, I wasn't trying to build contacts at Applebee's!
