Many reasons. Mostly because my QOL is crappy. i'm away from home 20+ days every month because management can't seem to keep the employees happy so they quit and i'm constantly being asked to cover extra shifts which i do just so the company can stay in service. They just don't seem to care much about their employees. If the company cared about us then maybe i'd feel different and wouldn't be so desperate to leave.

As to why AMF, everyone i've talked to that currently flies or were at amf has told me that they've enjoyed it very much. The pay is much better at AMF than where i'm at and also, i'd be home every night which is huge.
Most importantly, I want to be at a company where i can learn how to do other things other than just fly. For example, i'd like to be a captain for one. Where i'm at now, they want 4000tt to upgrade and i'm only at 1130tt flying about 275-300 per year. Another, is that i'd like to become a check airman, a ground instructor, training captain, etc. I'd like to be a part of the company to a point where i can contribute to the company and help grow as well as help other fellow pilots.

Anyways, sorry if i turned this into a long message haha but where i'm at now, its just a dead end.
