I know, but bought it was a good question that I haven’t seen talked about on here. The job is what you make of it by far. Just wanted to see everyone’s opinion on it.

Everyone talks about QOL, pay, and retirement and were they can live as how they are choosing who to work for. One thing I have not seen anyone talk about is fun at the job. How many of the guys on the airline side are having fun and actually wanting to go do the type of flying they are doing or are they just there for the pay and benefits.

Anyways... I'm usually nearly giddy coming into work, and it was especially awesome going to the varied places on the 330 as FO last year, and I'm loving it even more as 320 captain now. It's a cool thing getting paid to do your favorite hobby.

Ummm...be forewarned.
My FA wife used to get incredibly steamed at how happy i apparently acted getting ready to leave for work.
Cant tell you how many times i had !#/$@÷#$!!! hurled at me about why i was so happy to be 'leaving'.....and in her mind i guess 2+2 was coming up 7.
And no explaination about my inner 12yr old self getting to fly airplanes made one bit of difference.
So better to act down in the dumps till at least clearing the end of the driveway.
