And if you passed up other opportunities shame on you! My game plan was whoever gave me a class date first.
I hope you are working on an effective exit plan. Delaying upgrade is never a smart move. The days of waiting for your base of choice or ability to hold a line are gone. Legacy carriers want to see career progression.
