Well, nobody can tell you what to do, but here's a little thought on being a number: the trade off is this, if you are treated like a number then you better be prepared to be available at all times like you said, blackberry and laptop warrior. However, in your current job with eagle, you feel you are just a number, but you never have to worry about dinner being interrupted by work or anything like that. Life is all tradeoffs. But keep in mind too that just because you don't feel you are very important, you are. Just because you don't get a slap on the back from management doesn't mean you can't get your joy and self esteem from passengers and fellow flight crew, you are VERY important to them.
