You upgrade, then you are out of there in a year or two.

Maybe one day you will want to work for the airlines, this is a good place to learn some of the ropes. Good luck!
You're implying that 1-2k hours of 121 PIC is the golden ticket to get hired at a major. That is far from accurate. Ask all the guys who have been captains for a few years who still can't get out of their current regional.
