Here's one otherwise-interested commercial pilot that the airlines won't get
for less than the $42,000 I could make resetting people's
e-mail and router passwords from the safety of an air-conditioned office.

Apparently you aren't interested enough. Luckily for the airlines,
other's are. As long as there are lots of applications on their desk
there is no reason to seek out you. I have no doubt that the airlines
will fill their vacacies.
