Want passengers to realize the difference between regional and mainline pilots/aircraft/wages? Stop acting like they are one in the same. Management spends a lot of money to make the experience between traveling on a regional to a mainline carrier to be seamless, its to fool the passengers. Pilots who who pose as their mainline carriers only exacerbate the issue.
I always use my airlines name when I make PA announcements, not the partner's. Maybe I'll get called on it someday.
