The regional lifestyle has gone tits-up in the last 2 years for sure. We are getting flogged, so like krusty says, you might as well go for the jet job. Anecdotally, that is happening already with the experience of new turboprop drivers at an historic low.
But hey, who cares what happens in 2-3 years when it all turns to ****e, the boss will be in Tuscany or somewhere with a massive bonus. Shareholders first, "Go f$%^ yourselves" is the new morale-boosting mantra.
Up the pay significantly or drop the flogging-style roster or we will walk in droves.
Park them aeroplanes you accountant f%^&wit.
