From my experience at my last airline and what I've heard from friends at other airlines, that's not atypical. The ONLY reason I knew what was going on with hiring at my last place was I had friends that did the interviews and I lived in the base where HQ and the interviews and training took place. The guys in other bases never knew what was up with new hires, either.
All we can do is advise you what it is really like here at JetBlue and what you will see on the line and reserves.
And for that, I'm very appreciative. I just get a little tweaked when guys start "misrepresenting" the facts or tossing in rumors and presenting them as facts. It's not all roses and glitter, and everyone (including me) needs to know that.
