Hi. My wife has a career (real good one...) We find that it all comes down to making some compromise on both side. My wife is a pilot. We discussed this issue for a long time and we decided to take decision for every possible scenario so we can be prepared to what's going to happen. I just finished RMC and I have a 1.5 year OJT. We decided to go to Winnipeg so she can have a better job than Bagotville or Cold Lake. After 1.5 year, I have to go in Moose Jaw for a course which I will try to go in Imposed Restriction (in other words, she would stay back in Winnipeg while I go on course). After Moose Jaw, I would have to either stay in Moose Jaw or go in Portage La Prairie. Right now, the odds of me going to Portage are pretty high (not many guys get a fighter slot after all) so here is an other reason why we chose Winnipeg. Eventually, what I'd like to do is spend my career in Winnipeg. That way, we would both have our career. Of course we looked at other possibilities (Who knows, we might be stuck in Gagetown ) but this is just to show you that if you plan a little bit and talk to your loved one about your concerns and your career path, there is always a way to please both of you.
