I know it’s got it’s definite downsides, and I still need to get my butt in gear to do 121, but I’m so glad I get to fly corporate type aircraft and not deal with corporate type passengers. I’ll take uptight type A flight nurses and janky patients allllll day over what y’all describe as even the average corporate pax.
The stories here aren't a fair representation because there's nothing funny or interesting about most clients. Nobody wants to talk about the flights they flew with quiet, unassuming passengers who showed up ten minutes early, left the cabin clean, and slipped a $100 tip on the way out the door.
It's like riding the subway in NYC. Most of the time it's boring, but the spectrum of possibilities is huge.
My experience has been mostly in the Midwest too. I think that makes a difference. Most clients made their money doing "real" stuff like construction, agriculture, insurance, etc. They're not rock stars or "influencers" which seems more prevalent on the coasts. But that's just my anecdotal experience.
