I'm not saying that an RJ guy doesn't know how to fly the airplane because that would simply be a lie but some RJ guys would be more apt to rely on automation rather than flying the darn airplane. I don't know who the hell told you that flying a jet takes more skill but I think that you're HIGHLY mistaken.
You're never going to get to a major with that kind of attitude. You should really consider taking the first jet job that comes your way. It takes much more skill to manage the complex systems and automation of a modern day jet than it does of a tired old turbo prop. Because of the age of most turbo props they are also not as safe.
Ok, we get get it. You're trolling.
