I’m a support engineer for dental software. So difficult issues won’t get immediate resolutions, and instead development will actually have to fix things because offices will be crying at them for a fix instead of at me.
But the world won’t end.

Thousands of deaths within seconds. Airline pilot
Would auto pilot not keep them in the air for awhile?
I’m not saying it’ll be okay, just wouldn’t it be more of a creeping dread as panicked flight staff would call air traffic control for help? Then they would be in utter disarray and overwhelmed trying to guide hundreds of planes to land without an experienced pilot? Maybe a few would have retired pilots on board that with a bit of guidance from air traffic they could land…
Yeah but as soon as they get in the flight seat they would blip out of existence. Also I’m not sure but would anyone even be able to open the doors?

En-route nothing would happen for a while correct. Plane goes on as long as it has a programmed route to follow and fuel to stay in the air. But keep in mind that, around the planet, thousands of airplanes are about to land right now. Landings are like 95% flown manually so if all those are suddenly empty in the cockpit they’ll crash pretty much immediately.
Commercial? How’s your job? Just curious coming from someone who once wanted to be a pilot.
Happiness depends heavily on where in the world you are employed by which airline and what you make of it with your personal attitude. The spectrum of work/life balance is huge and payment can range from negative (pay us to allow you to fly for us) to big bucks (who has the time to spend this much?). Different labour rights in different countries like being fired and deported on a whim or strong unions and rights that protect you almost no matter what. How much free time do you have? Both at destination and at home, what is more important for whom? I had to retire due to a brain cancer diagnosis. So medical stuff is another slippery slope. Back pains? Migranes? You’re on your way out. I loved the job though. I was flexible enough to not be bothered by last minute changes to my flight roster or irregular sleep schedules. Not having kids and a stay-at-home wife helped with that as well. (If your partner works as well, the time you actually see each other can get scarce.) This also applies to friends. Wanna go out with me on a Friday? Should have told me two months ago so I could have requested off days… you get the idea.
