So is that like the dumbest smart kid? Or like the smartest retarded kid?

I get it here is better than your regional, but please don’t start with the how awesome it’s gonna be. If jetblue was so awesome we wouldn’t have needed ALPA.

Just stop. No one here wants to hear it.

Thanks to the person who posted the W2 (and has, understandably, since removed it).
That, more than any other comment I've read on threads from unhappy people, spoke volumes. Unemotional, brutally factual

I was very excited with the opportunity to go to B6, but after seeing that W2 form... I'll take my chances making over 6 fig. at my regional and wait for a legacy to call.

I saw the W2 before it was pulled and it was within $1000 of mine. I made nearly as much during my 2.5mo in the left seat at my regional in 2017 as I did in the remaining year at Blue.

Multiple people had warned me that the company could figure out my identity if they wanted to and possible retaliation could occur.

The faith that I have in our management is so poor that I asked the admin to take it down.

The fact that I have to worry about action being taken against me by management for being honest about the job is almost as bad as the numbers that were on my W2.

JetBlue is a stay away airline right now.
See everyone May 17th!

Yup. Just like safety first. Write everything up... but only if it’s really really broken.

...and only if you want to see the CPO go over every write up you’ve ever had if you write up something somewhere that’s inconvieneint.

buddy was telling me last night they had a 35 min turn with plane swap on a ron (had to shutdown and do a walk around) so needed up being late. A tech ops manager was standing up in the window watching till they pulled away because they wrote something up. He said it looked like they were trying to catch him doing something wrong.
