As they say here in Georgia, "don't let the door hit ya where the good lord split ya".

I don't know how long I can be patient and wait while this job takes away the simple things in life because I want to fly for the majors. Hopefully we all have a chance soon with all of the jobs that are opening up. I think most of us will have a shot, but this waiting game here at Expressjet with no light at the end of the tunnel for the past 6 years and the foreseeable future, is getting old.

Sorry man, 7 + as an FO at a regional airline with no opportunity to upgrade for years isn't a best case scenario. If MOST have it worse well I really missed something I guess.
