I flew with a guy who, while pointing to a fuel lever, asked me if I ever had the urge to shut it off. I said no, so he then pointed at the other one and asked "well what about that one?". Again, I told him no. He got a relieved look on his face and said "Good, I have use the Lav!"

"I just want to build my time to move on, I'll care when I get to the career airline."
"Who cares about what happens at the regional level?"
That is a "College Frat Boy" way to look at things. I thought about trying to go to a regional, but how in the world can I afford to?
