Depends. Although it was a pay hit, flying fighters in an FTU training new IPs and nearly MR wingman had its own satisfactions. If I was bag dragging actoss the Pacific dealing with crappy base ops issues, I might go "why am I here?" Debriefing a 4 v or arguing ACM at the bar still had its fun moments. However, I did retire before the last administration, so my queep level while painful didnt include the latest round of PC bull****.
