I remember riding the crappy shared van to a Motel 6 in DFW because either had an early departure next day or the last flight of the day CX due to weather. Was a mainline AA pilot in the van doing the same thing. That day I had gotten the call that I was hired at K4. The AA pilot told me that I should apply at AA... I thought to myself, "why in the hell would I want to continue this lifestyle?" Mainline guy doing the same exact thing as a Mesa regional guy... Not for me!
