Yeah. Before you do corporate flying you have to ask yourself some really soul-searching questions like, "How would I feel about pushing a dookie down the toilet with a rolled up magazine?" or, "can I use Google translate to try and talk the commandante of the airfield in Macho Grande for a landing permit?" or "Will I have to do a carpet dance if I spent $500 on deicing as opposed to $475 on hangar space?" or "Did this client want hot coffee even though we're in Houston in the dead of summer?"
Do you like answering accusations from the chief pilot like, "You know, if you went at FL470 you wouldn't have to make that fuel stop in Grand Junction..." or "Did you know the hotel you're staying at is $5 more than the LaQuinta down the street?!"

And then there's the self evaluations you have to write each year to try and beg them for a pay raise...
