Stressful? I must be in a different profession.
Take first break and have a nice read of the paper, or if I'm feeling inclined watch a movie; maybe have a cup of soup if I'm feeling a bit hungry half way through. Come back to the flight station and have the serenity eventually interrupted by having to send a few texts to a guy/gal in a tin shed somewhere in Indo requesting a bit of deviation around some thunderies. Order my crew meal exactly 27 minutes before the Manila boundary so old mate next to me does the HF work, phew. Decide whether or not to eat the cheesecake for dessert. The last few hours are spent contemplating what to have for dinner. Room service or head out for dumplings? Head to hotel and after having the room service, have a great sleep minus the screaming kids and watch a few movies and do it all again. Get home refreshed and have a week off. No wonder my wife plucked my first grey hairs out the other night
