Yeahhh. Your the ONLY one going to a regional to build your time so you can move on to SWA, CX, FEDEX or UPS. As some have pointed out, pick your airline carefully. You're one violation from it being your final stop in your airline career.

Part of getting to the destination is enjoying the journey on the way. Don't sell your soul just to hop in a shinney jet. Follow the money. If you can make more flying one gig over another then do it. You'll end up there as you progress.
