People need to stop thinking in terms of what airplane people fly. It really doesn't matter. What matters is where the decimal point lies on your paycheck.
Having flown a 727 entitles nobody to anything. And I don't think the OP was feeling that way.
A buddy of mine with thousands of hours of SIC time on MD-11s in Europe (holding US and JAA ATP certs) was told by Delta in an interview that he had no PIC time in the airline world and was told to pound sand. He felt entitled of course because of his MD-11 time.
We need to stop differentiating 'mainline' and 'regional' equipment and stop fetishizing anything made by Boeing, Airbus or McDonnell-Douglas.
That's my opinion and I'm sticking to it.
200% agreed

I think you meant "comma" but I still agree with you bro.
