Sometimes the all-consuming drive that some people have to get to a major is something I find confusing...
There are many jobs in aviation that provide QOL without destroying you family life multiple times as job changes and seniority comes and goes.....sure the top end pay is there...but there are other jobs that frankly, aren't half bad, that pay pretty good with much more Quality of life.
Many corporate jobs come to mind, as do feeder freight jobs from SOME companies....the one commonality is, don't try to commute, and or find an employer that will "home base you" so you are "on the clock" on a positive space ticket when you leave the house.....
An amazing number of TRUE corporate jobs (not 135 charter) have limited overnights...and do lots of "out and back trips" so the executives can have dinner at home......

Sometimes people just need to not be so focused on $$$, because frankly places pay what they need to in order to keep the seat filled....low turnover companies with good QOL are out there....
It's all about matching your priorities to a company and lifestyle, not just taking the first regional job, then the first major airline job you can get...
Oh yeah...I forget this sites name ��
