I am going to look elsewhere first, but I am not going to rule it out. I could always move to somewhere better after a while, like SkyWest.
Yea if you spread it out in normal 9-5 job pay, that equals to just about minimum wage. Imagine that, the Mcdonald's joke actually applies to at least one airline. GLA is a big sacrifice I'm sure your friend can tell you all about that and on top of that hey have a 15 month contract which makes it hard to leave for another regional. Enjoy the rocky mountain weather in a beech equipped with practically nothing.

Just get your MEI and find a job just like any other person that has been there before you. Not only will you have better options as far as airlines but you will also have better pay. Skywest needs atleast 1500 hours and plenty of multi. But if you make it, there's a short upgrade waiting for you and plenty of jet opportunity. Aim high.
