To each his own. To me though, the name of the game is “he who makes most by working least wins”
There are a couple of cautions: 1) You have to be able to sleep in the bunks. If you can't, longhaul flying is torture. 2) You want to be able to easily adjust your body clock to different time zones. If you can't it makes the job less desirable. |

1st/2nd year pay (mostly 2nd) Commuter Average 13-14 days off a month Blocked 690 hours in 2017 I don't spend most of my per diem on food so I count it. As for 401k, even though I can't spend it today it's definitely compensation but I'll post with and without both... $68,495 without per diem, 401k match, or company HSA contribution +$3,400 matching +$5,936 per diem +$1,800 HSA contribution $79,631 My apps are out... |
