Well, the outstation schedules are not for anyone over 30. An 0500 report on day one followed immediately by a second day with flying that goes until midnight will wreak havoc on your body, your attitude and your life. I hope that you "know what (you're) doing" regarding that.

Also, the people with the highest failure rate in initial training are the more "seasoned" of the bunch. I hope that you know what you are doing there.

Dealing with RJET's shenanigans and handling the frustration of dealing with completely incompetent support departments and their clueless employees is especially difficult amongst those with a little more life experience.

If, as a "grown man," you can accept that HQ people are far more interesting in keeping their heads down to protect their jobs through inaction rather than risking being noticed by lifting even a finger to help a crew member, then perhaps you do know what you are doing. However, as a "grown man" that has learned that I had really had no idea how hostile a company's management could be toward their employees or that willful ignorance and blame projection can be the highest priority corporate goal, I'd submit that until you are on property for a while, you really have no idea what you are about to do.
