Greetings all!
I figured this would be a good forum to get some honest opinions from the inside, if you will. Basically, I'm in the running for a job at US at HQ. It's in Res, so nothing glamorous but not entry level either. I've worked for other airlines before in this capacity, so I know what I'm getting into for the most part. I applied for this when I was between jobs in a nothing to lose kind of deal. HR took so long to get back to me I've actually started elsewhere and been there for a few months.
The real kicker is that I'm a good, good distance away. We'll just say thousands of miles. How crazy am I to even think about moving across the country to take this job? There's no house, kids, or anything like that to think about. My fiance is all for it and my family hates this state, so they say what the hell go and try also.
I will say that the position itself is damn near a perfect fit for me. I understand what a harsh mistress this industry is, yet I still love it. It's like looking at the car accident on the highway on a daily basis.
So...what am I getting myself into?
