Glad to have you here but telling a gu who spent 5,6,7,8 years here to quit and go to the bottom somewhere else is a huge insult especially coming for a new guy.

What point of view? To not make a change if your unhappy with your circumstances?
Unfortunately I have plenty of my own battle scars and life experiences to be justified to comment. As far getting the sign on, I wish it was reflected in hourly pay for all.
I'm looking forward to next week and the experience Envoy has to offer.

But when I stick my head in your class during my upgrade, I bet you'll stick out like a sore thumb.

I know its a lot of vauge info, but just giving you another option you might've not considered.
Good luck.

I've thought about it, but I know that I will be on reserve for awhile, and until I get the hang of commuting along with the hotel allowance it might be best to have a place to go that will always be there (especially when ORD takes a dump and there aren't any hotels).

It depends where you are commuting from. Crash pads cost $200-$250 per month. So about 4 hotels plus the 4 the company buys you. If you think you are going to be over 8 nights a month in Chicago the crash pad makes sense.
