True but the main factor is lifestyle, building your life around a roster that can change several times a day is fine when your early 20s but as you get older its harder when you have responsibilities and dont want to end up divorced.

Pay as a pilot is low these days and in many jobs you can define what you earn depending how good you are, not for pilots its all defined for you, very rule based!

As 2020 has shown ALOT of professional jobs can be done from home which makes it more pleasant and it will become more common. I dont know any pilots that can work from home yet.....
