Assuming you actually do work in headquarters I'm sure the FCC insider trading committee would like to have a word with you.

Thanks for the responses. I'm not under contract, but they will be paying for a training event in December.

I understand that seniority is everything, but I also know that the aviation community is small and that you don't want to burn any bridges, especially given how much the industry can fluctuate.

I know you guys can't make the decision for me, just looking for some advice.

That is respectable man, I turned down a training event once because I knew I was bailing. I'd call Skywest and tell them that and see what they can do. Cheers man.

If you're looking to bail with the current job, or type of job, bail as soon as you can.

Every day at the current job that you don't plan on doing long term, you're wasting your time. Every seniority number matters for upgrade, line, reserve, mood, satisfaction, etc. So if you don't want to do corporate or charter long term, bail.

Don't do the training event and see what you can get at SkyWest, or whichever regional suits your fancy.

I applied in April 2014 at 5 pm and got a call the next morning. Apparently it's even quicker now...

I applied on a Tuesday and had a call on Wednesday. Going through the Sims now and enjoying it. I plan on being at the majors in 3 years or less.
