Aloue, this is not worth a discussion about my lifestyle vs. yours.
If you are happy with things, I am glad on your behalf.
My post was directed to pilots thinking about joining Ryanair, or those types of companies. The headline for this discussion is: "Is Ryanair worth it?" - and I think not.
You are a captain with Ryanair, and since you are home every night, you are probably on the fixed base contract or have been lucky with your various base contract this month.
This is NOT the reality for many pilots with Ryanair, and most new pilots coming to Ryanair.
They are offered a contract via a contract agency (legally separating the employee from FR) to join with 65 Euro per block hour, and have to pay for their own hotel, transportation, uniform etc. They are not given a base, and have not got any job security what so ever. They even have to pay for their type rating, if they dont have this when joining.
If production goes down, or Ryanair does not like them anymore (not coming to BS meetings with MOL) - they are simply not scheduled to fly anymore.
Thats why I think that Ryanair is not worth it if you are thinking about joining them in order to get a job. However, as I said, if you are new and you need some fast turbojet hours - it might be worth a try.
