I was hoping to some day work at JetBlue, precisely because it is non-union. If I ever get there, I will be a solid no vote, and it is precisely because of people like that guy.
I started at JetBlue with the exact same mentality. I am largely corporate background so I never saw the need for a union. One year later I am a firm believer that we need a union. I don't care about the "stick it to management" blind mentality that I see on these threads. What I do care about is JetBlue sticking to their commitments on topics like fixing our retirement, health insurance and our supposed pier set pay which they now have decided that they aren't going to use anymore, They refer to it as unsustainable in light of Delta's new TA. I love this company but without a CBA we will never be able to hOld the company responsible for the compensation package that we signed on for.
