To anyone willing to give it, I need some advice...
I am just nearing graduation from college and I should have my instructor lisence and comm multi by mid summer...aviation has always been my goal since I was very young...guessing not much different from anyone else who is on these formus. I have always also liked internet gaming and got to know a lot of people in the industry.
So about 2 weeks ago I get a phone call from one of them and I get a job offer working for a gaming company. The pay starts at about 30-35k...plus benefits...2 weeks of vacation..etc...very attractive offer considering starting pay at most regionals, let alone flight instructing full time, would be significantly less. The only catch is I would have to move to the east coast from the midwest. I would get to set the hours I want pretty much as long as the job got done. So, in theory I guess I could get a job part time flight instructing also.
So in short...I dont want to end my life with aviation...but I am not sure if I should pass up this oprotunity.
Thats probably only 1/2 of the things I am taking in consideration for both...but does anyone have any serious thoughts on this?
Thanks in advance.
