If United pilots wanted to, we could go to the company ask to fly your RJ for crap wages and compete against you and your ****hole company. Many of us have already been there done that and have the T-shirt. Btw, thanks for working so hard, part of the money you are not earning, cause your wage sucks, is going to my profit sharing. I might buy a jet ski with it this year.
The lack of respect for RJ pilots is unacceptable. Don't assume you make more money than me. Flying isn't my only job, I fly part-time and pay people to pick up my trips. I feel sorry for pilots like you flying full-time. It's a good way to lose a decade or two off your life.
