In recent weeks, I am starting to regret my decision. I live in CLT and commuting is slowing balding me. I am considering this move mainly for the much improved QOL, but also because of the uncertainty at XJT. If we furlough in the future because we losing aircraft, it won't be temporary and I'll have to find a new place of employment anyway. The other reason I am considering this because I am missing the 3 big keys to getting on with a major: a college degree, TPIC, and friends. I have to accept the fact that not having a degree may be my biggest limiting factor and I may be a regional for the forseeable future so why not be a place with better QOL? Trust me, if I was a lot more marketable, I would not consider this move at all, but I chose the Air Force as opposed to college.
So, I am hoping you guys can help me list some pros and cons to help me make an educated decision.
Thanks
You know you aren't going to get any positive feedback here from this. Not because of the lateral move but because it's PSA.
Good luck. I wish I lived in base.
