Watched three co-workers make off airport landings, one wound up in the surf, two died. A CFI job is MUCH better experience, and you'll probably make more money, and enjoy it more.
Definitely I agree on getting my CFI asap. However due to my immigration status I can ONLY work within the field of "aviation flight operations" nothing else. So instead of sitting home all summer while working on my CFI I just wanted to get into some type of flying.
