Thanks davidjbar for continuing to be a part of this forum and offering advice and mentorship. It's greatly appreciated.

I have been in it for over 4 years now and still love it. This job is what you make of it. I enjoy the travel, the GBAs, and the training. Flying is only hard on the body of you let it. On the plane get up and stretch your legs as often as you can and don’t eat the food. Off the plane workout and don’t eat like an asshat. Yes, with the nature of this job you will have to work harder and be more consistent with exercise and good eating habits but absolutely doable.
There will be LOTS of annoying days with long flights, flight delays, cancellations and last minute mission assignments. But EVERYONE should come into this job expecting these things to happen. It’s just the nature of flying commercial airlines and the mission of FAMS. Everyday I go into work expecting something annoying to happen and make the best of it.
Having said all that I am also married with no kids and so I am able to enjoy and tolerate certain aspects of this job much more so than those with families. That is the one caveat I have to be a FAM. If you have kids you there will be plenty of times that you will hate this job because of missed events and time with family.

All of you guys realize that you’ll be looking for a new job in two years right? This is not a good agency, management stinks and the job itself is brutal (boring) and not good for the human body (constant flying).

Unfortunately, no. I, personally, have not heard anything. I know this adds no value to your question but I just hate for it to go unanswered.
