I just find it amusing that Delta shut Comair down because the experienced crew members at Comair were "too expensive", yet just a couple years later they had to start paying Endeavor crews a higher amount.
I also take some pleasure in providing my experience to one of Delta's competitors.

As for the competitors POV, I assure you they don't care about you either. Every legacy has dumped on various regionals, and several have gone out of business. I assure you its not personal, and its absolutely not something limited to DL and its regionals. The LCC's are not without sin either.
Wherever you are now, best of luck to you.

It's not to cool to make fun of what you don't fully know or understand. Many people forget that Comair was a "full service" airline with over 7000 professionals including above wing and below wing customer services, catering, fuel services, mtc with mro services, a private jet mgmt company, fbo service company and an abinitio flight school in addition to pilots and flight attendants.
It was a very different place from your "typical" regional airline.
