Mox,

I bailed at 14 and it went GREAT for me. But I bailed in 2002--a tough time but nothing like the current lockdown on hiring I see right now.

Right now, the ONLY domestic operations I see hiring are NetJets and World Airways. While both are good companies, neither can offer you the pay, benefits, or security another 3 years in the military can offer. Why don't you get your happy @ss back to work at the base, then call me in about a year and a half? I'll bet there will be a skosh more action then, and you'll have TRICARE and a retirement check to keep the wolves from the door as you chart your next step.
