It sounds like you're just searching for a better job as being in a call centre can be quite brain-numbing. But to be honest with you if you've decided to go the FAA way - then for sure, head out to Africa once you're done. Don't sit at home and apply - you'll NEVER get a job that way. Just go to Africa and hustle your way in. I've known many of my ex-students go there with 250 hours and an FAA ticket, and they're flying from C-172's-BE-1900 Turboprops. It can be done.

I'll definatly agree though - you WON'T fly ANYTHING for ANY amount of cash. Believe me, I was the same way. A few flying jobs later - I don't care what I fly as long as you show me the RIGHT amount of MONEY!!!

Best of luck anyway.
