right but I have seasonal work, spend 3 months of the year unemployed, and do not make much money. My point is regionals can be a HUGE pay jump for some people. I know some people flying jumpers who make $10/load and do that full time, needless to say they are living on 15k/yr, and are happy and budgeted for it. However going to somewhere like Eagle means 25k first year and 30k second, trust me they are not complaining at all. Esp those who are 23, single, low debt, college grads, and ready to move on in life.

I too went from hauling boxes to a regional and took a substantial pay/QOL cut in doing so... but truth be told I would have made the same decisions if I had to do it all over again.
