Always look out for yourself and your family first. Take the job at AS, being in the pool is simply that, being in the pool, you don't have a seniority number, nor are you an employee of SWA yet. Go to AS, enjoy the flying, when SWA comes calling, and you still want to go there, leave, but make sure you leave on good terms with adequate notice. That should not cause any heartburn with your friends nor AS. Good luck
