While I see management's point of view in not wanting to lose pilots to Delta right after spending the money to train them, they must realize that not everyone who lives in a Delta base wants to work for Delta. I am actually trying to move out of the south and am hoping for the Boston base. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

All I can say is, I live in a DL base and got an interview. I did get asked more than once why I didn't want to go work at DL as I live very close to one of their bases. It is all about how you present yourself, and there are people like myself who have no interest working at DL. I do think JB is looking at people who live near their base, there was a large number of people from Florida and other JB base cities at the interview. Don't give up and keep trying, it took me a very long time and meeting the right people for it to happen. Good Luck.
