Or he rides a Harley. That was my undoing. Our town has 3 bars and a package
store in spitting distance of the police station. One bar right across the
street and the packy right next door. Even I see the same cars parked there
every night and I know for a fact that these people drink to beyond the
legal limit, get in their cars and drive home, right under the noses of the
cops. I can't imagine that they don't notice this adn also know. I don't
know anybody that can go into a bar and drink, then come out under the legal
limit. You can hit .08 just sniffing the stuff.

Anyway, if he drank like he says he did, then he's just unlucky or he ****ed
off some cop somehow.

As for getting a job, if he stays out of trouble long enough and shows some
talent for flying and is willing to put in the time to prove himself, I can
see him eventually getting hired. I'd rather hire a pilot with some real
talent and ability with a couple of distant dings in his record than some
clean cut preppy sho just hinks flying will get him chicks.

I also agree with Peter's statement, though. If he has to ask himself the
question about being passionate enough about it, he probably isn't. Doesn't
mean he shouldn't try, though. Could just be being objective with himself.

As I've repeatedly stated,
he's either incredibly unlucky -- or he's got a problem knowing when to
quit.

As for this being off-topic, HE'S the one who came here, looking for
advice
about whether he can fly with two DUIs. As many have already stated, I'd
say he should be able to fly -- but who the heck is going to hire him?
In
a highly competitive job market, employers are just looking for ways to
"weed out" applicants.

What chance would he have, when there's 25 guys WITHOUT a DUI conviction
begging for the job?
