I started with CV in 2005.
I have all respect for what the older guys say about working conditions etc. They should know. They have been around longer.
But for me it's a dreamjob. One has to remember where you come from. Guess that's very individual. I flew five years in a European airline, shorthaul, and that almost killed me. With CV I have more days off, much more vacation, and it's more relaxed, never any stress, and you 'normally' get at least one day at destination, sometimes longer, up to a week. I was used to four sectors/day with stress stress stress and slots, and busy airports in Europe, and always minimum rest at destinations.
Just for your info. One job could be very different for different persons.
