I dunno... I once had to sit jumpseat from ORD to MSP on United, and the captain spent the ENTIRE flight telling me how I was single handedly destroying the industry by flying for the regionals... Based on the things he was telling me, it sounded like his problem was deeper than a bad schedule or uncommutable trip...

Ok, at Colgan anytime I jumpseated on Us Airways for the most part the crews are really awesome and friendly, but every now and then some of them feel the need to talk down or disrespect me, or "us" because I fly for a "regional". I have noticed here at Expressjet that CAL pilots (only some) have a REALLY bad attitude towards Expressjet pilots. I love when the FO's who probbaly worked at Expressjet calls us "kids" or the CA's walk by when we are deadheading on them "for work" and they don't even say hello!!!!!! We are HUMAN BEINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am thankful for CAL, cause without them I would'nt have a flying job, but come on for christsake.....................a lot came from a regional, a lot are scabs, and I bet alot only had 400hrs when they got hired a million years ago, anybody else get this type of treatment???
It's kinda funny this happening to you. Mr. Mesa Pilots Suck. We didn't do anything worse to you then you did to them.

I agree. I only commuted on them for about 5 months but I never ran into a crew that treated me like alot of UAL's did. That goes for the FA's and gate agents as well.
