I had made that post originally because I couldn't imagine XJet's contract would be lacking in respect to domicile awarding...apparently it is? I'm sorry - and I mean no disrespect here, but having to place a PermBid and having the responsiblity on me to find a replacement for my position doesn't sound appealing. I'm sure the system works slightly better than what ya'll are seeing at the moment given quicker movement through the domiciles, but I still wouldn't want to be limited like that. I very much enjoy the freedom of moving from base-to-base from month-to-month. My .02...
