I never heard anybody leaving a major voluntarily to go fly GA.
I am sure there must be some very rare exceptions. I am also sure they are regretting it. Regionals don't count. And still, I almost regret having left mine. Wonder why a lot of corporate pilots want to go to the majors, and not so much the other way around?

I don't know of many corporate jobs that rival the jobs in the legacies, unless you want to compare the very scarce positions as flight departments managers. The percentage of those compare to the total numbers of corporate pilots is negligible; now compare that to the 50% captains ratio in the majors. And even then, the legacy captains still make more, and have more days off.
Managers have no days off, even in the weekends, they must be reachable by phone, at the very minimum.

Yes. In corporate we get a salary. In airlines hourly rates, but also minimum guarantee, so also they can be paid without working. When the check gets in, both pilots had days off. And more of these in the major airlines then in the corporates. 15 days off is not a great line for a major airline pilot, yet in corporate is very rare, as most have much less, if any.

You did not say your dad is the safest pilot. I did. And I was intentionally sarcastic. Same for the rest about him.

I specifically stated the difference in safety between GA business jets and 121 is enormous, of course we don't want to count the weekend warriors. it would be ridiculous to bring that to the table. I did not, and I find funny you have to specify it.

Sorry if all this facts offend you. Sorry if you have to feel that, every time somebody talks about the differences between majors and corporate jobs, you take it as an attack to your job.
If it bothers you so much, may be you should self evaluate.
