Just trying to compare the end of my career with my current job versus a job with Brown or FedEx.

With regards to pay there's no question, but QOL, retirement, time with the family, etc. is what I'm wondering about. Mostly QOL, that's why I ask about the schedules. Retirement won't compare either. I'm home alot now and to go to an airline would be tough on kids, so I'm just wondering how it will compare in the long-term. For the first few years, it would be a big sacrifice.

Senior guys that can hold AM or PM out and backs and live in MEM, can sleep in their own bed every night - all 28-31 of them - if they so chose (or if momma allowed ).
