I have been unemployed for a year, been living with my in-laws, mother in law doesn't knock when entering the bedroom and my unemployment is about to run out! Good ol' Michigan economy!

Sucks that you guys hate your jobs and by all means I hope you get selected. Makes things easy for you. On the other hand, I was laid off a couple of months ago and started a new job 4 weeks ago. I love the new job, pays great, great hours, great atmosphere, no stress, and I love the city I love in. So now what do I do if I'm selected? Leave a really good job that I enjoy, move my family to BFE, take a HUGE pay cut to go to OKC for school for 3 months, probably still a pay cut after I get out of school, and don't know that I'll like ATC anymore than what I'm doing now. Would have been a very easy decision had I not been laid off or had I not landed this position.

try dealing with idiot passengers on a daily basis. it gets annoying quick. although, flight benefits are nice and about the only thing keeping me sane while waiting on the FAA.
