Have you compared your current pay scale to an equivalent spot at DAL or FDX or UPS lately? Have you considered that you can work at a regional for 10 years, and get all that experience and skills, the same as the guy at Delta who worked for the same 10 years, and make a third (or less) than said Delta pilot, and when your lucky straw is drawn to move up, all those skills and experience equal zero, and you start out at the bottom again?
