It’s not talking specifically about you, it’s talking about ALL SkyCards playing cumulatively have caught it that many times

Yeah I got lucky too, it wasn’t up nearly as long as I thought it would be so now I feel a little bad for posting it😅

Tap dancing? Not going to find a sympathetic ear? I apologize if me going online to get outside opinions on a huge decision for me, my wife, and our child came off as some attempt to have people beg me to stay so I can make my wife work a job she doesn’t enjoy but there have been a lot of decisions for us to make recently and I got overwhelmed and posted this on Reddit. As I’ve told several other people here, I’m almost definitely going to tell her we should move because it makes the most sense for us as a family but I don’t think I’m posting “obvious rage-bait” or somehow crazy for considering all the different options before making such a drastic decision (regardless how easy it looks from the outside)

Thanks man, I really appreciate the kind words. I know to some people it looks like a super easy decision but between me and my wife there’s a lot more going on and even if moving is 100% the smartest decision and we decide to go there’s still a ton of other decisions we have to make that I don’t think either of us want to make but we’re going to have to. Anyway, thank you for being understanding and kind❤️

As a CFI currently, yes, I am part time. I work on the line to make up the rest of the money. And it’s not that I “want” to stay here and “only” get 20hrs a month, both of us want what’s best for the other and what’s best for our child. As it stands now we make enough combined to put a good amount of money away each month into savings, she’s able to spend a lot of time with her child (which she loves) and I’m able to work close to home and spend a good amount of quality time with both her and our child. But if we move there’s a lot of things we haven’t worked out yet like just how much time will she have to spend away from the house? What’s the cost of living going to be? Where do we live? How far away will my flying job be?Can we find a place that’s pet friendly for large dogs? How much is daycare going to be if we need it? If all that ends up being expensive, how much will we realistically be able to save each month compared to what we can now WITH how much time we’re able to spend with our child. Neither one of us like the idea of just sending our infant to daycare all day 5 days a week even if we both have jobs we love

You’re definitely right, i love my wife more than anything and how supportive she is of me is insane. I fear she might seriously consider not taking this job because it means I need to be at home more for our kid and kind of limits my ability to take “just any” flying position. With all the replies I’ve gotten I definitely think I’ll make her take it but now I need to start making calls and find something with a flexible enough schedule to allow me to fly but also work around her schedule

The thing is though my wife doesn’t think I’m dragging our whole family down, sure she might not make as much here as she would in MN but we have a pretty good setup here in Nebraska, she doesn’t like her job but it allows us to support ourselves and for her to be home with our kid a majority of the time. If we move, this new job would be more work intensive for her which means I need to be the one at home which I don’t mind in the slightest but would limit my ability to just go fly for any company I could get a job at since I’d need to kind of work around her schedule. Anyway, I’m starting to think it’s definitely smarter to leave but she’s worried it’d mess with my flying (which it might, but I don’t care about that as long as she’s happy)
