jetBlue Hiring
#9421
Thanks for the earlier $$ replies. Looking at the PEA (I realize it's not binding in any way) I see several times $2500 stated as training pay? Is this a new thing or you guys certain about it being $2000?
Man first year is going to be tough hopefully a solid TA will come soon!

Cleaning staff enter your room daily. Unless you have dnd sign out. Staff walk the floors constantly and are always checking the public refrigerators.

For lots of reasons JetBlue seems like a great place to work (all the negativity notwithstanding), however I am completely taken aback by these rules. Yes, they are in fact, unbelievable. I'm nearly 40 years old, not a 19 year old learning the bounds of my personal responsibility. I'll just leave it at that.

No booze because they want your money going to THEM. Also rumor is the bar is operated by a board members company. Getting the picture on how this place works yet?

If they started letting people in from the outside just think what the FAs and even some pilots would do with that. It would be totally different if you were on say a Hilton property but you are in JetBlue world so they are going to let that happen.
This is one of the many reasons the pilots were against the lodge.
Also this one rule for all thing is another issue here that is changing slowly. This airline was founded on we are all equal and as we all know that does not really work. Part of the reason for the frustration on here is not only are we building a union and a CBA from scratch we are also fundamentally changing the way the company deals with pilots(amazingly the company is not playing along....sarcasm)and the culture, add to that some guys that don't agree or like jetblue the way it was and you get guys who are rightfully upset.
I still think JetBlue has a solid future but you can see the contracts of the big guys and get an idea about how much work we have to do and it will not be easy.

Received a care package in training from a loved one, they thought it would be cute to include a bottle of Johnny Walker "Blue". I felt as though I had a bag of heroin in my room. I can't imagine I would have been fired for having a sealed bottle in my room, but you hear the stories of "that guy". The mandatory morning calisthenics at the Lodge was more annoying than anything.
