Count yourself somewhat lucky to have an aviation job right now. Line flying is not a like a video game, with nonstop action. You are basically paid to sit there during much of the flight and wait until you are needed (TO, LDG, Approach, Departure, Taxi) or in case of an emergency.

Flight instruction is actually more interesting, but doing it enough to make any kind of money requires long days and weekends, so you get burnt out.
