It sounds like you describe the life on a regional guy except he's getting paid appropriately for the hard work at D. Although, I think most folks are coming to D to get off the rgnl lines.
Exactly.
Glad I could help as my post was definitely geared to the mil guys who aren't familiar with 121. Nothing we do here is hard, but the days are long and I'm always tired and weary when I finish my trips. That said, my back feels way better now than it did in the military, I don't look like I was just thrown in a pool at the end of a flight, there is no email, no face time, no annual performance reviews, no awards packages, no mandatory fun, and most importantly: the reward for more work is more pay
