I don't know how you can begin to compare service in the military to life at a regional, or even be a complainer about life here. My QOL at Mesa is 10x my QOL in the military, by my pay is about 1/5 of my pay in the military. You (should have) known what you were getting into. You won't stay at good hotels at any regional. Some of ours aren't bad (double trees, marriotts, etc), most are average, and a few are horrible. Write enough complaints and we get a new one.

Get in, get your time, and leave. Complaining on the internets won't really help. Most people know Mesa's pay rate and healthcare costs when they voluntarily sign up to work here. There are no surprises.
