Sigh. Where am I negotiating holidays? All I implied was that I understand that corporate types do fly on holidays, and I am okay with that. Underlying that was also the assumption that they don't fly EVERY holiday, like most of the low- and mid-seniority regional and major pilots, but if I was incorrect in that assumption, then I wanted to hear about it.
BoilerUP's answer is more along the lines of what I was hoping to get. Not all glossy great news, but an educated, realistic look at his/her particular situation, with the acknowledgement that not every corporate gig is going to be like theirs.
And I more or less assumed what Boiler's conclusion would be... it'll be a bit of a slog to achieve my goal. Especially if I just up and quit what I am doing now and went full-in... which I would not be able to do.
