Glad you're happy, you stay where you are then then.
Your options certainly are not "limited" either. There are over 20 regional airlines in the U.S and A, all of them hiring right now.
I would encourage anyone looking into applying for their first regional job to do their homework, research the contract, and use recourses such as this web site to narrow down the ones that are worth applying to.
Like I said earlier, I find it intriguing that so many people stand up to defend their precocious regional. Its not like I said your girlfriend was fat, just pointing out what I consider to be an unacceptable practice.
Rationalize all you want. Good luck, and I hope you don't get grounded by a snow storm or something. Christmas is coming up, you need the money!
