One early morning, three young student pilots / Pilot Trainees got together at the pilots lounge waiting for their turn to fly.
The 1st one said: GEE, THE WEATHER IS GREAT! I CAN'T HARDLY WAIT FOR MY TURN TO FLY. MY DAD IS AN AIRLINE PILOT SO I WANT TO BE LIKE HIM ONE DAY SOON!
The 2nd one joined in: WELL, MY DAD AND UNCLE ARE FIGHTER PILOTS AND FLYING RUNS IN OUR BLOOD. IT'S BEEN MY PASSION AND FIRST LOVE SINCE I WAS A KID!
The 3rd student pilot just kept silent and looked jittery and uneasy.
The two boys couldn't help but ask the 3rd one: HEY, WHAT'S UP WITH YOU? He looked at them and said: TO BE HONEST WITH YOU GUYS I REALLY DON'T KNOW WHY MY DAD WANTS ME TO FLY. I MADE HIM SO MAD AFTER HE HAD SENT ME TO 5 EXPENSIVE UNIVERSITIES BUT I ALWAYS DROP OUT MID-STREAM ON 5 DIFFERENT COURSES . I KNOW I REALLY PISSED HIM OFF REAL BAD. BUT WHY ENROLL ME IN A FLYING COURSE? FLYING ISN'T MY BEEF! IN FACT, HE KNOWS I'M SO SCARED OF HEIGHTS.
So, the two other pilots asked in unison: AH, SO YOUR DAD MUST ALSO BE A PILOT AND WANTS YOU TO BE LIKE HIM THAT'S WHY?
The 3rd replied: NO, GUYS! HE IS AN INSURANCE EXECUTIVE.
