de727UPS I am sorry if this is common knowledge on here but are you married or divorced or have you been a bachelor? The only reason I ask is the "flexibility" you speak of seriously gets reduced when you have a family that has to be as "flexible" as your career needs to be. It would probably be great for the resume for everyone on here to move oveseas and fly....that would be very flexible but not very realistic. I totally agree with your opinion that the more flexible you are the more chances you have to succeed but you seem a bit harsh on skyhigh. If a guy is trying to make things better for his family I have a hard time faulting him...if he did something you wouldn't have done that is where my question becomes relevant to you....have you been a bachelor or have you had to make some of those tough decisions as well that effect your wife and children. I am all for criticism if you walk a mile in there shoes, so if you have then go for it but if you haven't had a family and had to make those decisions like he says he has then give him a break...frankly I'm a bit tired of seeing you two go back and forth...get a room..j/k. Also one more point...telling everyone how much you make...classy.
