Funny thing is that now that prospect is out of reach because of the very position you aspire to, captain (note the lower case) on an rj, aka replacement jet! You have carved out a niche for yourselves that used to be the entry position at a Major but you are doing it now for much less pay, respect, lifestyle perks and the chance to fly something heavy. So in summary you are striving to get a crap job at some crap airline and have minimal chances of doing anything more! Hmmmm must sound good to somebody!

Funny, I ask every rj kid in my jumpseat if the rj is helping or hurting their careers and about 1/2 get it and the other Bambis don't. Why do you think the express, aka minors, like hiring inexperienced kids....cause they never understand they are getting screwed and abused!

Way to go sheeple!
