+1 for a station job as your first.

- less guys willing to do it, due to remoteness and possibility of non-flying responsibilities.
- Stick and rudder flying
- Not much CTA / procedure to worry about while learning the other flying basics
- Nowhere to waste your money
- Gain some self respect by doing an honest day's work
- Perfect lead up for your second GA charter job, which is more easily obtained with station experience

Approach a station pilot job with a can-do attitude, alacrity and a minimum 6 month commitment and your career will be off to a great start.
