If you live for voluntary oversales as it's the only way you get free flying any more, you might have been furloughed from a regional jet.

If you leave a job flying PIC with turbine upgrade in two months because you got recalled to sit SIC in a turbine, you might have a severe case of SJS for a regional jet.

On your first flight back on the line after recall, you see the thing you squawked is still deferred, you went back to an regional jet.

If during recall training on emergencies, you reach up and reset five circuit breakers in sequence, and it clears the instructor-set emergency, you've spent too long in a regional jet.

If you fly a partial panel, FO-side only approach to mins with only two screen and no hydraulics, only to have maintenance tell you to pull and reset two circuit breakers, and it works, you just got OWNED by a regional jet.

If the back of the bird is more comfortable than the hotel, you're back in a regional jet.

If you got furloughed and rehired as a mechanic at the same company... and took a pay raise in the process.. you might have been an RJ driver.

As you read these postings, if your tears of laughter turn to tears of sadness, you might be an RJ pilot.

Maybe not....I actually heard a comment by a passenger getting on a 757 from PHL to ATL, "Oh my God, it's such a small plane."

Are ya S'ing me!?!

If you have to gate check your carry on, your on a regional jet.

If you get kicked off the flight because on the weight and balance, one person makes a difference, you might be on an ERJ-145.

If you have the air condition all the way cold, but it's still oppressively hot, you're in a CRJ.

If the over wing exit sign is tilted because it won't fit across the width of the fuselage, you're on a ERJ 145

If your airplane has a big name of an airline on it, but only a small decal of your airline's name on it, you're on a regional jet.

If your FO says "Wow, Wow, clouds! I've never flown in clouds before!" YOU MAY BE ON A REGIONAL JET.

If your FO can fly a jet, but doesn't have enough hours to get on the insurance at a traffic reporting company, you're on a regional jet.

You might be on a regional if your constantly being hit in the head by your 180lb FA's a$$ during service while a pax...

or better yet...

Your FA has to walk sideways during beverage service....

Pre Xmas day, and with the bag fees, NO. If you're one of the last 25-30 on, you have to check your bag, and it's NOT a regional jet.

If a passenger gets bought off a flight, and that dollar amount was MORE than what the entire crew is going to make for that flight, it might be a regional jet.

With some of the senior mammas/Hawaii Five-O club, those aren't restricted to just regional jets.

If your aircraft's paint is worn off and passengers can see all the rivets, and passengers ask if it is safe to fly on, and you can't touch the plane without getting dirt on you....you are on a regional jet. Oh wait, that's just Comair!
