Glad to have been of assistance Chinook.
Please keep us apprised of your decision and career progression.
I can only hope that like me, you're able to do what has been a passion since I was a kid. My father maintained that I've never worked a day in my life ... because I've found something which is an interest and an experience, not just a way to get a cheque. Some refer to it as "Livin' the dream."
Trust me, ...... while each day in the business has sure been no bed of rose petals, I look at the challenges as if I were a football or hockey player, and that day or week you're up against a good team that may require a lot of physical effort, tricky plays, and mental resolve to beat. Then there are days where its easy to come away from the game having put 30 points on the scoreboard out of 30 shots on goal, and set up another 40 plays for others to put one in the net and see how its done.
It remains that I'm still playing the game after 40+ years on the field, and being well paid for it.... it started by instructing in the morning, and flying charter in the afternoon.
