Lol go easy on the new guy! We were all there at one point or another. I'm with my current company because they fly jets and had upgrade of 2 years at the time. Who knew I would get furloughed for two plus years and looking at upgrade of 5 years now. Hindsight is 20/20.

Take the others' advice about living in base and bid whatever that'll get you there. Commuting sucks! Crj and Erj are both great planes. I think eagles only fly the 700s and IMO that's a better plane than the 200's or Erjs hands down.
