Why do you spout an elitist attitude and insist that it DOES matter that you may or may not rake in an extra 1 or 2g per year compared to others? Dude. You make dirt compared to what ALL of us regional pilots should be paid. We all make dirt.
Considering we're doing the jobs of major airlines, we should be paid as such.
So, collectively we have a long way to go. All of us. You are in no better position to fixing this industry because you may make a couple extra thousand per year. That's not impressive, it's not cool, no one looks up to you. If something like that really makes you feel like you are better than someone else, then you were seriously misguided as a child. Grow up. Some of you need a serious reality check.
