Prior to pregnancy with me, my mom used to travel the United States training employees of companies how to pierce ears and other necessary skills for being sales associates for clothing/accessories stores.

As far as I'm aware, it paid decently and she got to visit places she had never been. Of course, that was over 17 years ago and who knows if those jobs are even relevant anymore. But I think its interesting enough. xD

that'd be awesome, if I didn't have a pretty big aerophobia already... haha. But I guess I gotta fight it if I want to go around the world. I've been on planes probably at least 15 times by now, and it never seems to get easier. :'s But I've got medication for mental health now so that should ease it a little! it always feels so satisfying to finally get through the plane ride and experience a new place <3

I'm still terrified of planes cause of the lingering fear that any one of them can explode.

Sheep needs to post more on this thread IMO

I don't like planes at all, but if I had to pick a 4 hour flight or a 22 hour drive, I'd pick the former

Statistically you're safer in a plane than in car!

isn't that because the average person is in a plane less than they are in a car?

i honestly don't know. was curious if that was taken into account or not


on a side note: you're also safer staying inside and hiding under the covers. it's a dangerous world out there, full of people who enjoy avocado and pineapple pizza. some even enjoy both

I mean, there's also the fact that you are much likely to get hit by another car or accidentally drive in a ditch than you are to get hit by another plane or encounter such heavy turbulence that the plane is knocked out of the sky, and I'm not sure if that can even happen.

Considering how people drive in certain areas of my city, I'm genuinely willing to believe that.

a plane can get struck by lightning and the passengers will really only think of it as turbulence
so yeah you're probably right

tbh I'm more afraid of the plane being hijacked or there being some sort of mechanical failure and the plane falls from the sky because of it.

terrifying stuff to think about but still. u_u;;
