Glad you think everything is peachy, though. We can all look forward to better pay, and better T&Cs with guys like some in this thread around, who would be willing to thank their airline for every stale crumb of bread thrown at them, because they get to fly a shiny jet.
We are grossly underpaid for what we do, and the last thing this industry needs is more guys who seem to be perfectly content with the wages and conditions lowering the bar even further. Some posters satisfaction with the wages seems to hint at this.
Thanks for the info! I hope to never share a cockpit with a negetive nancy like yourself. I hope your quest for higher wages and better work rules works out well for you, but there is always someone to take lower wages and crappier work rules then yourself. I am trying to avoid the regional arena all together if possible, but thanks for your contribution to your own stated problem. We all appreciate you willingness to work in your self described horrible conditions for extremely meager compensation. Maybe someday you can start your own airline and pay pilots 50 times what they are willing to work for! You will be a hero!
