Well..It seems like the topic got a little derailed here (i think)

From what DeltaT posted originally it seemed that he were wondering if high hours would hurt him in the interview prosess..? Am I right in this assumption?
Ive sometimes wondered if I came into a airline interview with 2000 as an instructor the board would wonder if I were unable to get any other jobs.
Also, Ive heard from ppl that has spoken to UK airlines that they rather have low hour pilots so they can mold them into what they want in a company pilot rather than having a high hour pilot with loads of bad habits.

That being said, at over 1000 hours of instructing I still enjoy it.

It seems to be an automatic "GET OUT" attitude when someone is asking questions about "should I continue or not?".
Thats not necessarily a bad thing, information from collegues that has been in the same situation in the past can only be gained thru questions.
