It wasn't a regional, but thanks for guessing. And you're right. And the industry has gotten progressively worse, which the reason for the negativity that is so prevalent on these forums. Look at the new pay rates DHL is trying to pawn off on it's contract companies for the 737 flying. It's pathetic.
I'm simply stating that there is very good reason some of us have a skeptical view, and it isn't just because WE didn't make it. Look around.
