I’m massive proponent of living in base for all things airline pilot. However, let’s not pretend Vegas even holds a candle to most places in California. There is a reason so many people live there and pay all those ridiculous taxes. It’s an amazing state and it’s not because of Disneyland.
Disantis World has many perks but I would never fault anyone for wanting to stay in California. Because well, it’s California.
But yeah don’t commute.
To the question- be humble and smile. Have stories that make sense and show you’re a leader but can also be led.
