Take the damn job, duh.

Sorry, seems too obvious to me. What you described is way better finacially than you re gonna see in aviation with 1500 hours until you re called back from furlough... And even beyond that.

That said, if you re really asking if you should consider leaving an aviation career altogether, as someone else said, you dont have to make that call now. But the fact you re asking it at all is telling I always tell people, dont pick pilot as a career unless its the only way you can be happy. Job itself is great. But headaches... LOTS of headaches.
