The unhappy new hires are mostly the ones that arrive uninformed. All I've noticed is that west coast commuters are miserable, JB is probably not the best choice for that. At the end of the day, If you can live near a base or a 1 JB leg commute away your Qol is excellent.
How about west coast commuters who are still only 1 leg away from base? (LAX-JFK) Not expecting it to be excellent until actually being based in LAX, just do-able.
Also, anyone have word on good crash pads near JFK? Preferably no hot beds and lots of JBU crew.
