I agree... These regional airlines go full circle in what seems to be 8 to 10 year blocks. As I'm sure you know in the mid to late 90's everyone wanted to go to Mesa, then 10 years later "Mesa Sucks". All these regional airlines do one thing good, its getting suckers like us to fly for nothing, and when they give us a 3$ hr raise we sing their praise. We are nothing but a step above indentured servant's.
Good luck with your next step.
*** An indentured servant was typically a young, unskilled laborer contracted to work for an employer for a fixed period of time, typically three to seven years, in exchange for transportation, food, clothing, lodging and other necessities during the term of their indenture***
