No moving on for me though... just want my base and prepared to put in the hard hours in the summer and relax a bit in the winter. They can do what they like to me at work, as long as they pay me enough to have a reasonable life and I'm able to play with my kids in the countryside every evening or so.
In addition to that - I'll be sleeping in my own bed rather than a torpedo tube in the economy cabin, and sleeping at night-time instead of departing at 3am every shift listening to Mumbai HF for entertainment.
I think I could handle long-haul at 70 hours a month, but mixing the long and short-haul and Ultra-long-range stuff at 95 hours a month has taken it's toll.
