We could have at least given them the option to show up, get a seniority number, do indoc, get on the benefits timeline, but stay on training pay until they are trained, with an unknown timeline for training, or given them the option to move their class date to the next class since this was done inside of 2 weeks...which is unacceptable, unprofessional, and the least they could have done was give them the option.
Conversely, I know of a JB guy going to delta soon. He talked to his CP about rescinding his resignation (the final date was still a week or so out). CP said sorry, prob can’t get your job back. So we can axe mutually agreed upon classes 5 days out but can’t allow our guys to rescind resignations over a week out? Disgusting and hypocritical. Good thing Delta and AA have continued to honor their class dates for those with CJOs. That’s the honorable thing to do, unlike JB and UAL canceling inside of 2 weeks.
For anyone who leaves JetBlue, you should probably give no more than 5 days notice, because that’s effectively what they just did to our 3/18 newhires and the new standard they set for themselves. Completely unprofessional and sad. And hyperboy, I hope to God you pushed back on whoever's decision that was, because it is disgusting, and left lasting damage to our reputation.
