At least where I am I can go LH stay SH,part time options, live pretty much where ever I want as long as I can get to work. Honestly the amount I am clearing each month is more than I was expecting. Earliest check in is 5am. Latest landing SH is 23.30 back at base. No night flying.
I have so much more energy than I did before and overtime is there if I want it.
Yes sounds like BA works for you , that’s fantastic! BA didn’t work for me . This chap wants the ME , I want Jet2 my mate wants Easy.

people have different things they want in life so let them be
