As for the corporate post: My pay with minimal effort is comfortable and pays the bills, career progression was quite fast in comparison, working conditions are likely not on par with a fortune 500 91 gig but still not bad at all. As for commuting that is a pilots choice and not all do. I have MANY corporate friends who do not commute only because they couldn't and uprooted their families and moved across country (often more than once) for a job. Around in 5 years? In today's economy I feel more comfortable at a regional than at a corporate gig.

It's not for everyone but it could always be worse.
