Every time I contemplate leaving for a legacy visions of listing for flights and jumpseating, checking loads multiple times a day and doing all of this several times a month make me realize that’s I’m right where I belong. I am Atlas and I have a pool.

I like this guy.. You can be my wingman anytime.

Only one correction. You forgot Portland.

Defund the police. What a great idea nobody. Glad nobody saw what would happen.

I live in DFW, suburb NE of the DFW, N of Love. Great schools, great neighborhoods, low crime. Least wokeness. Very reasonable commute times, cost of living. Love it.

The housing market has blown up here though over the past 3 years. My house doubled within 24 months. So cost of living is not necessarily cheap any more.

Have you looked at all the rest of the metro areas in the country? Same thing. So, relative to other areas, it is still a reasonable cost of living.

Incidentally, I live in Frisco.

I do like Frisco. Also McKinney, Plano and Flower Mound. And I agree with Dera but also with you. Not necessarily “cheap” as it used to be, but still more affordable than most big cities out there, plus it’s a no brainer working for AA.
