I’ve hated driving ever since I started learning and even though I know how to do it now, I actively avoid doing so and would rather use public transport.

I always got told I’m a really relaxed and safe driver.
Just turn on the radio, as long as it’s not distracting you from the street. I often sing or eat while driving (of course not with full speed :eyes:)
I just have fun when I drive, especially on autobahns or with big cars.
My favorite one (my parents sold him after many years tho :sob: ) looked like this one

I’m afraid that wouldn’t work. I hate every second of driving and manual transmission is FWEH.
But if you enjoy it, more power to you! I’m glad you do.

Ok to be fair, I always dreamed of becoming pilot one day ^^

#44703

Wut how

#44704

I wanted to be a pilot for a while when I was younger
Actually I’ve always wanted a career based in air or space; it’s just changed over time.

First it was Astronomer
Then Pilot
Then Astrophysicist
Then finally Aerospace Engineer, which I have settled on now.

Uh… highways are boring as hell… I learned it from my father
You basically always keep one hand on the wheel

I think I gave up on being a pilot after my vision in my left eye started waning
My right eye still has perfect vision but my left eye is not great
To become a pilot you either have to have perfect vision or get surgery to correct your vision power back to perfection
I didn’t really want to go through such a kind of surgery haha

Yes I own a Monocle for reading purposes because of this, if anyone was wondering.

I’ve never stopped dreaming of becoming pilot, but if you are a woman, you aren’t allowed to do your obligatory hours while pregnant, so you lose all permits and have to start completely anew with lessons
So yea…

Also in US, as a commercial pilot you must work hundreds and hundreds of hours for cheap airlines and low pay before any quality airline will even consider hiring you

#44711

I didn’t want to be a civilian pilot :upside_down_face:

#44712

ah well then
I’m still considering enlisting in my country’s air force sometime
But currently I am not nearly fit enough to get accepted

Would def need to work out more for months before trying that

#44713

I literally bought a switch mainly just because it has one of the best sources of fitness for a person who needs to stay indoors (ring fit adventure)

#44714

i should probably play that more

#44715

:thinking:
Wii fit +

#44716

It’s a lot more effective than Wii Fit +, i assure you haha

#44717

Well in terms of cardio at least (which is def my favorite branch of exercise)

#44718
