I accidentally walked into a pocket session going on in the BOS crew lounge yesterday.i say accidentally because I didn't know it was going on. RH said flat out, there's no truth to the 15 Aug United story. I then ate a free doughnut, and fled because all the suits freaked me out.

For the last several years plenty have said they will be leaving in droves and do not. I don't know why do you?

I don;t know why pilots go places and not others. JetBlue got real lucky when they hired you! Are you leaving? I am not. Nor am I stuck either. I like it here and look forward to our first CBA.

I always admire your optimism HB. I hope you have the ability to "look forward" 18 months. Based on what you state above, B6 has no incentive for a decent CBA. We are not closer to one now that mediation has begun. Hope Im wrong man.

I'm really dumb...I'm here for the culture and the discounted headphones on my commutes and DHs
