Plumbers, cops, barbers and electricians have that option. They value where they live and the life style that benifit offers.
If pilots are so petty as to throw away almost everything that most others value in life in order to remain in the seat then what does that say about them?

I have NEVER lived where I was based. I always commuted. Worked out great for me. I'd guess the vast, VAST, majority would consider a job at SWA worth that.
