Says more about you than me I suppose.
I’m not saying to make a career at a regional, I’m saying it’s never been better to be at one. I wouldn’t expect anybody to stay with the options out there, but you’re beyond out of touch if the pay rates and contract QoL things “were better at Mesaba or the early days (BK) of Endeavor”. You need to find your inner peace dude, you spend your days whining about how bad things are, that’s no way to live. If you were hired onto the metro you’re probably single digits in seat and making 150-200k a year easy, and got a nice chunk of money for retention. Stop telling everybody and yourself it’s so bad. I made $25/hr as an FO and sat airport ready. Think newhires now have it worse? Lol
