Cargo flying

My flying was any time of day or night. It depended on aircraft arrival, fueling and loading-unloading. Duty days were long, but it was worth it. Longest flight was 12 hours. since there are no passengers, you can get up any time to go to the bathroom, stretch you legs, exercise and fix something to eat. And with Heavy crews go to sleep on the bunk. And then you have about 3-4 days in 5 star hotel in an interesting place.
Pay was not great but it was the best time in my life.
Then you get furloughed.
