Great thread! I'm in a similar boat too. A short time at a regional until I was furloughed, then found good work in 91 corporate. Hell, I'm even 30 years old too. My 91 job is great and there are people out there who would slap me for wanting to leave it. My applications have been in for over a year now and I'm looking forward to the day I get called for my turn to interview. Its reassuring to hear that other people are trying to do the same thing, and that some like Kansas have made the transition and are happy they did. Good luck!
