I'm guessing he doesn't even work here. For the record, just finished September last night with 16 days and only 6 overnights. I've done more in a month, and I've done less in a month...but generally the numbers are manageable and there are some fantastic layovers.

Your resume only needs to be 3 lines long - Ability to fly, extensive experience smiling and nodding, well-versed in the business theory of "thank you sir, may I have another?"
I kid, I kid...your 10 days on are just to be available....you won't necessarily fly them all (you will).

Meanwhile, 121 terms and conditions get better and better. Even the regionals are looking competitive in comparison to what some 135 and frax operators are offering. Who knew that Piedmont would offer a first year pilot nearly $60K (and then a $20K retention bonus if you stay one year**) to fly right seat in a Dash 8?
with that said, i agree with you that the regionals are stepping up their game. Things are getting interesting

18-20 duty days and 14-16 overnights for me. The average is diluted by a number of factors, but its not hard to find someone in FTW working the amount that I described.

With every regional and LCC screaming for pilots and the regionals having a flow to the Big 3 why on earth are you guys working for an outfit like Executive Airshare? Do you guys have DUI's? Felonies? Child molestation charges? Explain to someone on the outside.

Plenty of reason beyond the absurdity you suggest.
EAS is a great company. You're gonna find guys at every company who whine and complain about schedules, contracts, overnights, etc.
No company is immune to the complaining and keyboard kourage brigades.
Carry on!
