If you get hired at Horizon and it gets you closer to home, go.
Thanks, I just got the "career suicide" from reading through the forums about Horizon. I'm really leaning towards Horizon because I THINK the QOL will be better but I'd hate to make a decision that would cost me two or three years in the long run. With Skywest I would be based in MSP and commuting to PSC.
