Nope, sorry man but you and you alone have to work the rest of your professional pilot career at first year regional pay.

This just in...........regional pilots don't get paid ****!

BTW, my first year I made around $28K ($19/hr and you think $24 is bad) and my second I topped $52 (all as FO) but I worked the system and sat ZERO reserve. Things get better once you're off reserve and off first year pay. Just relax, if your not willing to work for the pay then don’t accept the job or do and fight for more which is what most of us chose to do.
