VFE, why on earth do you want to sit in a passenger transport as 'sexual advisor to the Captain' (if he wants your f*&king advice he'll ask for it), and suffer years of jet lag, stress, overnights to India, simulators, hoop-jumping, Hong Kong pollution and a very aggressive management culture, and then have to resort to financial wizardry to maintain an acceptable lifestyle? If you are such a financial whizz you could buy your own high-performance aircraft or warbird and be captain of that and not have to put up with the rest.
I've been in the company a long time, and both it and the job have gone to the dogs, especially for new joiners. And the jets ain't shiny any more. Think very long and hard about what you are letting yourself in for.
