I just don’t understand what you want to see us do. I guess we could grow real fast but that will definitely hurt our margins. It’s not like we are giving up on Boston heck they even acknowledged that they need to fight for it.
I'm not sure what I said that would indicate I have *THE* answer?

If I don't have *THE* answer, should I not acknowledge a significant challenge?

However, the only logical 1st step in my opinion is to give the entire front line crew an industry competitive profit sharing *FORMULA* to get them engaged and pulling in the same direction. They (JB crewmembers) are NOT right now, nearly everyone around me cares .002 right now.

That's the 1st, best step to take to try and win against a 1,000lb gorilla of a competitor who also has a highly engaged front line.

My opinion.

Are you mentally handi-capable? The answer is so obvious that even "special" person's know the answer.

Well, since you're so special, perhaps you could explain it for me?

Keep talking, you are making quite a list of things you don't understand public.

So you have nothing of substance to add, as usual?

My opinion.

Wait you don’t have the answer for something?...........

Lol talk about the perfect set up.

Only kidding blue, yes I would love to see a PS change, I’d love to see us all going in the same direction but right now obviously they decided it’s not worth it so you know how it will go.

I’m sure you saw my post of what one of the higher ups said about investing in the operation. Basically in my opinion we are going to see another time like that winter where the airline will just shut down for the day to try to reset. Now that amazes me because that’s not how I or you or most likely anyone would run things but I swear they are determined to make it all fall apart. Now here is the kicker if we do this over and over this summer, if you think people don’t care now just wait till August. And in what November they will again announce no PS for you and morale will sink even lower. But you know what I don’t think they care, profit (which they won’t share) and cost, that’s it.

Meanwhile Delta who can’t grow much more due to lack of space in Bos will definitely be getting some of our customers because they actually try to run an airline. Now no doubt they have issues but it seems from the outside they will spend the money to try to fix it. JetBlue will just hope employee and passenger good will, will get them through again while they give each other bonuses.

The sad part is you have employees here who I do think care about the “airline” and what we want it to be but management is just going the opposite way.

I'll give you a hint. It's not the union.

I mean why wouldn’t the company willing give money away. They don’t care about morale. How 360 wonders what the hold up is blows my mind.

I think 360 forgot the sarcasm face, at least to me.
