It looks like you're on the 175 and you never got to experience the CRJ pairings in places like DTW. 13 hour 3 days and 17 hour 4 days with a minimum of 89-90 hours a month leaves you with minimum days off month after month. Throw in commuting on top of it had a lot of pilots getting tired of it. Even for myself in SLC it was getting hard to average more than 5 hours of credit a day - at 20+ years seniority. Of course none of us have to worry about that anymore.
