You talk about how good your regional was and that it was possibly better than JetBlue. That makes you lose your credibility. There is not one regional out there better than JB. Also to add you your insight if your assessment was in fact true tell me one person that left here for a regional. Apples and Oranges. You also live in base probably? Bet the fram on never having to commute? you talk a good talk you are not going to go anywhere and you know it. So why would you not try to make this better and join a committee and not just APC?
How many times did you have to interview too get this job? Man you must have really wanted to come here all less than a year ago..to this $hit show. and to be so bitter... I wonder what your seniority list number would have been had you been hired if there was more than one time? Bitterness?
I do help with the Veterans Initiatives here at JetBlue to help hire Veterans when the rest of the US seems to turn the other cheek after serving their country. Have ever been to a VIB event? Yes or NO? I am very proud of those initiatives and if that makes me a company guy then...Guilty. That is one of the best programs at JetBlue. Period!
Lastly you blast me constantly as a company guy and a juicer yet I am trying to help by volunteering an ALPA committee, and serve this pilot group. And you ignore questions that I have asked you..plenty of them?
If your posts are suppose to be your way that you help this pilot group then I guess we will reap what we sow?.....
End of the day you get slammed and assassinated unless are negative and not positive......
HB- Im not trying to get on you, but your post is all over the place.
The biggest problem with your pov in general, is your constant praise of B6, while claiming to volunteer for ALPA. Anyone who sees why ALPA is here, would also see the frustration within the pilot group- This seems to escape you. Guys ARE going to leave, and its more than a few.
Its lovely to be positive, but you have claimed, on numerous occasions, that it keeps getting better here.
When Atr or I, or anyone say truthful but negative things, the facts are indisputable.
1. Healthcare has been gutted
2. Reserve rules are regional-like
3. FSM changed at the whim of management
4. Poor vacation system
5. Pay is 20-30% behind (I know guys, its more)
6. 3 day trips worth 10 hrs.
7. Enough redeyes to **** off even a freight dog
It is NOT getting better- Why do you insist on brushing over the problems here?
It is not a terrible place to work, but be honest to prospective candidates and empathize with those of us that are fed up.
B6 is NOT a destination airline.
It may become one, but B6 is too cheap to ever be on par with a legacy
contract.
Now, can you finally answer the question that has been leveled
to you by everyone?
How is it presently getting better?
No harm meant by this HB, but cut the pro company BS and at least act like you are apart of B6 reality.
Peace man
