Some people are made for airlines with a fixed set of destinations that they can prepare for hours, days, weeks before they fly there, or they'd feel uncomfortable. Others would get bored to death by this and prefer a more dynamic environment. And, yes, there are many GA operators that are great to start your career with, but you'll need to jump **** ASAP to advance your career and life. We are not talking about those jobs. We are talking about jobs in GA that pay well, that don't make you sit on standby on a regular basis, that offer a stable roster and enough rest time and that stick to the rules and regulations.
I never found flying the 727, MD80, 757 and 767 ‘boring’ and we never had a ‘fixed set of destinations’
Our schedule was bid for but then could be modified as desired
With a worldwide route system the variety was outstanding
