I quit my job and dumped my girlfriend, too big of distractions........Now, I collect unemployment so I'm almost a real airline CEO in a way I do get paid to sit at home and run my airline now.
Are you serious?

HA, I wish I could afford to sit at home all day. Was only kidding.

...  You still patrol the forums all day even when you haven't been in a game for months.

Its hard to stay off this thing when you have a laptop in the patrol car, a computer at the office, a computer at home and a blackberry.......

Lol, I wish. I'm only as the youth would call it, a "Rent-A-Cop" I do Alarm Response for a security company, so its more like. I get a callout to a break in alarm, I'm the only one in the district but. . .D-Check is on manual and expired . . . 15 unscheduled aircraft . . . what to do, what to do . . .

When, while buying yourself a used car, you ask the dealer with a completely straight face when the vehicle was last C-checked  ::)

And when having realised your mistake and got the MOT details, you negotiate buying the vehicle on the basis that the cambelt is changed, and still think to yourself "great - that's my D-check pushed back 6 years!"  8)

Last night I dreamt about my nephew loginning into my account and leasing 6 or 7 of those small airplanes; antonovs, Baes, cessnnas etc.  all different types with 3 year leases. I had two pay like 150 mil to get rid of all of them. I didnt have that much money in my account, because I just ordered 10 X 777-300ers, I was also cursing as there were no planes on the used market, and that Dan Dantes was going to take up all slots and bankrupt me.
The funniest thing was, I saw that I was losing money, but not in the usual daily basis, but it was working as a countdown timer, I was losing like 10000 USd per second, oh my god, I woke up in tears.

That's how I know I'm playing too much AWS. Damn it Sami, I was addicted to diet coke, and now this...

- When you complain to your deputy prinicipal about blocking AirwaySim because it isn't Facebook or an ordinary flash game site, when they allow "Maths Online" when it consists of no maths and fun games such as popping balloons using monkeys. ... (Don't ask!  :laugh:)
- When you book marked AirwaySim on your school laptop even though you can't connect to it.
- When you tell your family how much fuel planes use per hour, rounding it to the nearest 10 kg/h.
- When you considered getting a job so you could have some money... to play AirwaySim.
- When the time for a game to open is something reasonable in Europe and something RIDICULOUS in Australia and you either stay up or set your alarm so you're awake to set up your Home Base and get the best used aircraft. <-- happened numerous of times  :laugh:

Today I caught myself counting the load factor of local commuter bus... :-[ The yield didn't look too good because most of the passengers were either elderly or young enough to buy half priced ticket.

When you reveal to totally random people what you give up in your personal life to play Airwaysim.

- when you start thinking about the ICAO code of those city's major airport and your routes to there during evening news and weather reports

I just did it today ;)

Nope. It's regarding real pilots. ;)

When everyone at work asks you how the used aircraft market treated you today, and they can normally tell by your mood...

When you work for an airline, are surrounded by fellow airline nerds, and you are still the "geek who plays that airline game all the time"....
