You’ve pretty much described an airline career too. Albeit the rostering is a little tighter and when you say the F word you gracefully stay home.
Your hearts either in it or it isn’t. I enjoy the game of flying. Others enjoy the destination. Some enjoy long haul. Others short haul. Some love regionals or aero medical. Corporate. Ag. The list goes on.
So yes, GA can get you down. However there are many flavours of flying out there. You just need to find your niche.
Everyone I know who stuck with it got to where they wanted to be. The ones who didn’t, didn’t. Quite simply.
Find a good GA operator who has progression. Give them a call and ask what you need to do to get a job there. Keep touching base and updating them. GA is much nicer in a turboprop.
Stick with it. You’ll find your niche. If you love it. If you don’t, bow out. However, you’ll probably regret it. Either way
