I am looking for quality of life, and I know that the cost of living is less in Dallas. I plan on living in base and not commuting at all. Thanks.
Living in base and not commuting is the way to go. I tried that in ORD after probation by signing a 12month apartment contract and 3months in the apartment we furloughed and I was SENT to JFK!
I am in DFW and just bought a brand new 1month old house. I have a mother-in-law sweet available, but it requires a car. If your interested PM me. 25minutes to airport. In Keller, TX.
I was hired March 2008. I cant tell you which would have best QOL. Its just gonna suck for awhile brother. EMJ has better lines. Although the CRJ lines are changing and no one knows what their gonna be like. Not to be negative, but dont worry about what you get, your gonna be @#$%^& the first 1-2 years regardless of Equipment, I dont know what A/C you should bid. Good news is we have A LOT of movement happening! PM with questions. Wish I had a recommendation for you. But my recommendation is dont commute. I lived out of a suitcase for 2.5years minus the 3 months in the apartment.
