One thing to really think about is this.
Can you handle constant change? Can you handle having to think on your feet every day and having the resources to do it but for the most part its you, your partner and an unlimited credit card.
A lot of people that come here (nj) don't quite understand what we do and how much change is involved. For myself I thrive on it. Not knowing where we are going from one leg to the next. Getting changes inflight to new destinations. Thinking you're headed to canada and the trip now changes to mexico. No problem.
This is what I see most people have a problem with. The bags, I don't load them there are line service and tips for that. Cleaning an airplane? If it can't be cleaned up with a dustbuster then i have the plane detailed.
I enjoy doing the non precision circling approaches into non english speaking countries. Its a whole different type of flying. The company gives you the tools you need you have to know what to do with them. Sometimes it takes some inginuity to make it work.
Good luck with your decision.
PS i have 3 periods of vacation a year. 1 period= 3 weeks so yes thats 9 weeks of vacation a year.
