I'm a mid level F.O. And I'm not going anywhere. I guess it is all what you are looking for. I would love some day to fly a widebody except I just don't care for the mission. Long haul missions with lots of back side of the clock flying just doesn't interest me. I hear people brag about their 30 hour Paris layover and I am glad they are enjoying it but for me I would much rather spend that down time at home with my family. I will take my 17 or 18 hour El Paso layover any time because I know it will allow me 18-19 days at home which is what truly makes me happy while at work.
