There are exactly zero places in the world where "fighter jet pilot" is seen as a "working class" profession.
And my whole point was that it's often not a profession, but a hobby.
- kelipso 7mo agoPretty sure US military fighter jet pilots are mostly just working class or lower middle class people. I know two who did that are they’re nowhere near rich.

- roncesvalles 7mo agoIt won't keep you in the working class once you get in, but the military in general only attracts the children of working class families. There is a certain socioeconomic boundary above which your kid joining the military is unimaginable, just simply not an option.
- djhn 7mo agoIn the UK and its numerous former colonies officers are mostly posh, up to and including the royal family.
