I'm with Scratch on this one. Just two days ago I had a 15.5 hour duty day with multiple ground stops, whining pax, no food, and a reduced rest overnight to boot. The ground stop/delay programs are very tiring on a 5 leg day, then running to the only open place to eat which is ALWAYS McDonald's.
Of course the best part of the regional pilot 15.5 hour duty day is only getting paid for 7.5 of those hours.

I'm itching to try something different. It'll be nice to get rid of the smart a** comments from the pax too, as if it is my entire goal in life to make them late. I personally fired up my weather and tornado machine the other day just to screw with them......give me boxes quick!
