Forgot to bid, that was hilarious...

In my view of flying the small jets in and out of Atlanta for a while, the only time that commuting sounded worth the hassle was when a jumpseater or buddy explains that their home town holds a solid network of support that they are tightly connected to. For example, I had a great dal guy from ROA onboard one day who explained that 3 generations of his family (likely to become 4 with 3 girls in college) all lived in the same neighborhood. When he leaves for work you could tell that his wife and children are all just fine and that he was at peace.

The only caveat to this is once a person is senior in category of course.
