Please 360. You must have Cush trips. I’ve been asked twice in the last 30 days to waive the CBA. I can PM you the screenshot of the ACARS.
Have you ever had the AO tell you that by not taking an extension past a 14 hour duty day “you’re going to ruin everything?”
Have you ever made a stand up PA because the AO is waffling and the customers are freaking out because jetcrew keeps updating them on departure times? Then, when the flight cancels the customers make underhanded comments to you and even get up into your face because now you’re the reason they’re experiencing JetBlue’s operational failure?
Have you ever sent an ACARS dispatch because you can’t get through to crew services to tell MOT that you’re going to time out because the taxi line is 1 hour, with absolutely zero response??????
Unlucky? Hardly. I’ve been abused beyond a reasonable doubt by an operation that lacks clarity and certainty integrity. I’ve been disrespected as an employee and more importantly as a professional pilot.
