Your anger may be misdirected, in this instance. Jetblue management doesn’t care about your buy-in, and your union can’t make them care.
Fly the FOM and FARs. It’s the only thing you can do.
Bingo. This was a "leadership" decision, and there was no amount of union feet stomping that was going to change it.
The pilot group could have voted the CBA down, but that was NEVER going to happen on the first CBA and even if the pilots had voted it down, I would bet my house that profit sharing wouldn't have been one of the things "leadership" would have been willing to revisit, for pure political/optical reasons.
