I've been quiet for a long time. Coming to work, doing my hours and going home just to do my laundry, repack my bag, and maybe catch an afternoon to go out on the town and have a beer before my next 4 day. It's wearing me down after 4 years. I'm ready to jump!

Get out while you still can! Enjoy life.
Btw, by the call sign, sounds like ASA.

Get out, don't be afraid, the rest of the world is not a cubicle

The grass is greener, more money, more time at home, you get to have a life.

Understood, but before jumping, would suggest lining up your new line of work. Know many airline pilots that have developed a business or started part time work to lead to full time opportunities before jumping. In any case, more chance at financial security and life satisifaction knowing you have a few options up front.
Good luck!
