Line 3: ==High-travel jobs== {{infobox\|~~Downsides~~Not ~~and~~a ~~upsides~~vacation\|Travel to exotic locales, staying in quality hotels, maybe even flying business class may sound like an all-expenses-paid vacation. But it's not: in the end, business travel often boils down to the '''stress of working''' combined with the '''hassle of travel''', only now you'll often be working in an unfamiliar environment without the ability to walk down to your colleague's cubicle and ask for advice. You are only rarely in control of your own schedule. You may have no time to explore the destination, just seeing chain hotels and the airport walkways.<p /> Being on the road constantly can have an '''adverse impact'''' on: * '''Relationships'''. You may not be able to see your family or significant other while travelling. * '''Health'''. Practicing [[sport]] and [[food\|eating]] well is harder when travelling, and the risk of picking up bugs your immune system isn't equipped to handle is higher. * '''Levels of stress'''. After a bad day at work, imagine going to the airport only to find that your flight has been cancelled. Of course, business travel does have its '''positive aspects''': * '''See the world for free''' or low cost – flight tickets, taxis, hotels and meals all add up to a significant sum. Your company will usually pay all of these for you, allowing you to visit a new location for free or very low cost. If visiting over multiple weeks then you effectively get a paid weekend break to do whatever you like in your new city. It may also be possible to have a (short) holiday at the destination before returning, paying food and accommodation for the extra days, but not the return ticket. * '''[[Frequent flyer programmes\|Frequent flyer miles]]'''. Your company pays for the tickets, but it's you who will rack up the miles. Some companies restrict the airlines that you can travel on.
