Default Quit SWA for UPS?

I know it might sound crazy but I'm considering quitting Southwest and going to UPS. This assumes I could get an interview and get hired at UPS which I understand is no small feat.

The reason I'm considering leaving is that I'm tired of TSA, rude pax, commuting, and flying 800+ hours a year with 25 minute turns. Don't get me wrong, I am NOT bashing SWA, I just don't think I can do this type of flying for another 30 years. If I'm going to make a move it's better sooner rather than later. I've seen the lines and trips at UPS and the flying there is much more casual than at SWA.

I would love to hear some educated opinions on this matter from other major airline pax guys and cargo guys. I'm also looking for details about working for UPS. The more details the better. I'm looking for some well thought out advice. Please, no hurling tomatos from the cheap seats. Thanks.
