I could go/have gone to GJ and gotten a quick street captain upgrade, but I'd rather find a new career if I can't look at myself in the mirror when I leave the hotel every morning.
But you could look at yourself in the mirror when you made $20.73/hr, $24.39/hr, and $30.09/hr for your first 3 years respectively as a Pinnacle CRJ FO? Make no mistake, many came to Pinnalce for the quick upgrade and justified the low FO wage (the lowest in the country at that time for a CRJ operator) because they would upgrade quickly at the 2 year mark.
