Hey, I wasn't trying to be a wise guy, there's a lot of good info into the QOL and goings on in the other threads. Check out FI too, if you're on it.

I think they still want the hours if they can get them, which they can't. If you have a comm multi, fire off a resume, the worst that can happen is they don't call.

$5000 bonus - don't quote me but I think you get $2500 after you finish training and $2500 after your first recurrent. A little incentive to stay, they were losing an awful lot of guys within their first year.

fresno's post is right on, and I will add that if you want to live in one of PDT's bases, life can be alright. If you want to commute, you're not going to be the happiest camper.

Good luck.
