"The drawbacks - a potentially long commute"

Potentially nothing...that is a long as$ drive to ORD no matter how you spin it.

"if the weather is bad"

Which it quite often is in Chicago.

"traffic builds"

Which will happen for all day shifts and even some swing shifts.

"I live in Indiana"

That alone is enough reason to pop the extra couple hundred K's for a place and a few thousand more a year on property tax to live closer to the city. Just my opinion of course.

Hey Archie,

Still no official word on where I might be headed, but I was wondering what the schedule is like while training at ORD And then once fully checked out

Thanks
