For me, all it boils down to is having the right balance between aircraft to fly, salary, people I work with and time left to do other things than flying.
You need to get paid enough to pay your bills, but a big paycheck isn't everything. Likewise will the latest shiny jet with the biggest screens in the neighborhood not necessarily make you happy. Having to fly though with people you don't really get along with or not being able to have a life is a guarantee for a loss of perceived quality of life.
I understand that you sometimes have to compromise and that living in a perfect world is hard to achieve. Wildpilot isn't really telling us something new here, but his posting is a more than welcome reminder to cool down a bit and find out for yourselves what's important for you. Thanks!
