Those of us who start our careers at the regionals had no inkling of the lengths that management would go to in creating phony bankruptcies, reducing fleets, and changing domiciles. It is not a crime, nor naive to believe, when hired by a company that they actually want you there, and have the best interests of the business, their customers, and their employees in mind.
You train, get your ratings, put in your time in good faith, and expect that your employer will treat you well. Not unreasonable, and no company manager or ALPA rep. is at your flight school or at your interview to discouraging you from pursuing flying.

We need to focus our blame not on the pilots, who have absolutely NO control over contracts and working conditions (don't like the wages? ok, we'll reassign your aircraft to brand Y...) but where it belongs:
On the ALPA lawyers (contract administrators) and ALPA reps at the majors who allowed the outsourcing to the regionals. I find it laughable that legacy pilots point the finger at the poor regional schmuck, while they continually grant concessions to "save" their own asses.

"Live to Fight Another Day"....ALPA's motto
Woerth, Prater, Jalmer Johnson, Bruce York at alpa don't live under the concessions they jam down our throats! Pitchforks and torches to alpa natl.!
