Exactly, Then what?? The odds of making it to a major still are not that good even for a regional captain. If you were to get a job with a major then you can look forward to 10 more years trying to get back what you lost leaving the regional. All the while the guy who fixes your toilet is making more than you. By the time you have made it to anyplace reasonable you wife will be retired. I think you are on to something.
