Looks like the regionals are really doing their best to dish out their best company coolaid! From signing bonuses, unheard of pop up ads, hotel stay for commuters, birthday phone calls......................... Why don't they just pay a living wage for a professional pilot? Commuting gets old really fast as does the bag drag that goes with it. Don't do it unless you have no choice. When I was in the ANG many moons ago, I used to commute (2 leg minimum, sometimes 3) to my Guard slot. Mind you this was only once a month. I gave up after 3 years. But again, everyone has their own threshold. I can't tell you what a good feeling it is to get done with a 4 day and to be home within an hour or less and sadly hear about someone having to wait for the next flight (or miss one by just a few mins).
