[QUOTE="brown67, post: 2058790, member: 5457"] Take your time. Don't rush. You have a great job, so think it through. I had the grass is always greener mindset until the dotcom bust and 9/11. I'll admit I had the "I'm just a delivery driver" mindset until then. Watching friends and relatives getting laid off, pay and benefits cut turned me around. Especially when they started coming to me saying how lucky I was to work for UPS. Happened again in 2008 with the housing crash. I'm in feeders now making over 100k a year while my older airline pilot brother just equalled me in pay. Just made captain. Still have better benefits. He has the "job" everyone admires, but he's gone through layoffs, and pay cuts, and insecurity that I've never had. There are very few jobs that pay as well (even with advanced degrees), are secure, and stable as UPS. [/QUOTE]
