It was not someone I knew personally, just chatted with quickly in the crew room of PHL. Tough choice and one which has to be made based on lifestyle.

I would probably choose UPS if I had that enviable dilemma.
Yeah it must have been T.B. I just flew with him a month or so ago when he was waiting to hear, got interviews at both places with NO letters of rec, and was leaning toward going to UPS. Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.

To answer your question I dunno about DFW, but there are hourly flights from DCA to ORD, and you could easily get from BWI to ORD via AA/UAL or Southwest via Midway and take the El. If you got hired at Eagle, commuting to BOS or LGA might be easier, though.

Are you in the hiring pool at Wiskey? I don't think things are gonna 'bust loose' anytime soon but I'd say they'll almost have to hire in another month or two at most to get properly staffed for summer.
thanks for the help. I'm from LEX as well, and while I've lived in DE for the past 3 years, its as you said not home. My reasoning for sticking it out up here, would be so that the woman can be by her friends / family. I'll be flying so she would have someone to hang out with, instead of making her start all over. showing her the pay chart for UPS was one way to get her back to KY, hell I think she'd beat me there :)

to be honest I wish I was in the hiring pool for Whisky however I've still got 30 days left in the Air Force and I'm still deciding which flight school I'm about to give my soul.
