You're argueing apples and oranges, two totally different situations. Your examples above have nothing to do with picking trash. No one ever said not to help nana with her bag or not speak to the person with flight phobia and make them feel better...

Good luck!
That's how I am approaching it this time. Finishing "Blue Streak" and reading up on current events on their website. Talked to JetBlue a couple years ago at the same conference and I didn't do a whole lot of research leading up to it.

Good luck! I was asked what I knew about JetBlue during my interview. I was well prepared and the interviewees noticed and cut me off, saying "You certainly know about us". The more you know...

Hot topics to discuss are the Mint product, the Lodge, S. American expansion, and Cuba. Obviously Core Values, and be prepared to tell them which is your favorite. Best of luck! I am in training now, and so far I am feeling really good about my decision.

We just opened up service to Quito, Ecuador, and we are trying to acquire 36 slots into Cuba, FYI.

Not a darn one of those things has anything to do with cleaning the cabin. I guess you missed the post where the CUSTOMERS (you know, those guys who pay your paycheck) don't want to see us doing it either?

Today I welcomed three children into my cockpit to take pictures and get wings, helped an elderly customer down the stairs with his bag, bought coffee and candy for the inflights during boarding, and did not go dumpster-dive nor have I in years. They are separate issues, and if you do it as my first officer when we operated the jet I will courteously ask you to desist. Good luck if you call me out on my "humanity" on that.
