Hilarious Gordie. It is so true. Hide behind the way we vote....hide behind the keyboard. It makes us sound like such a tough group.

 

Dude, you’re a troll for sure.

You’re truly an impressive person. I’m sure you roll it on every flight. You have to step on the brakes to finally get the airplane to settle on the ground and have the ground spoilers slowly raise as the sunsets in your utopian world. People clap as you slowly and gently guide your airplane off the runway with confidence and ease.

Couples things:

“Demand”?

“Warrior”?

You Liam Neeson?

Delta, United, FedEx, UPS, American, Spirit and Frontier are hiring like crazy. Since you demand such respect and are such a fighter and warrior in the aviation world (and life). You could seek those options? But my assumptions is that you like many others have some pathetic excuse about why they cannot move. Cannot take a pay cut? Cannot move kids? Whatever it is...

It must be amazing to be you and be able to demand and get whatever you want. People must bow at your feet every day.

End of the day bro, youre just a lazy pilot... doing 100% of nothing but expecting the world to revolve around you.

All that being said. I don’t clean, because well, I’m a sky god.

 

Out of curiosity, since I’m 13 and was thinking I would entertain the idea of military service.

Do you feel as you’re a better person than everyone else because you joined the military?

You assume that anyone who has not been in the military has not fought for anything? You think because no one has joined the military, walked around in camo, sitting in the desert, are not brave people?

You’re living a short and sad life bro if you think that. Everyday, you have to wake up and wipe you own butt, just like everyone else in the world. Well, actually, you probably have someone do that for you, with blue gloves on obviously.

 

If both think alike one of the is irrelevant..

 

Contracts ate Symbiotic. Whatever you have been negotiating Q has not been contracts in the real sense of the term.

 

How did you know!!!???

And that is the attitude that has gotten you the results.... errr.... no results. Pilots are not lazy. I doubt you would call your family doctor lazy. Don't call pilots lazy. Just because you don't value your profession or find a high degree of depth in it doesn't mean it isn't at the pinnacle of science and technology. It just means you are too mediocre to know any better. Have more respect for yourself. At least you don't clean without having it in an agreeable contract.

Did I say that? Or did YOU say that.

I merely made an example of prototypical profession that requires exhaustive effort, dedication, and commitment to something greater than oneself, which includes the threat of death. Fighting for a contract is not the same as fighting for your country. There simply isn't a comparison. An equivalency would require you to break the law, unless you happen to have a license to kill. Sorry but braving the NY cold is not bravery. Wearing lanyards or luggage grips is not bravery. Bravery is not a function of being "better", it's a function of doing something greater than oneself when many others will not. You wouldn't be online right now had lots of American soldiers not died in WWII. I remind you that Japan and Nazi Germany were formidable enemies. But I will say this, you should have respect for people who have done things in life that you may not have. Think of a fire fighter who has run into a burning building to save a life, of a missionary in a foreign country captured and tortured to death.

But to address your use of the word bravery... there can be many forms. Erin Brockavitch is brave, Martin Luther King was brave, Ben Shapiro is brave, Christians in the middle east being slaughtered are brave, Diamond and Silk are brave, Edward Snowden is really brave, the people run over by tanks in Tiennemen Square are really brave, and so on....

Bravery just doesn't largely exist with the sheepish, beaten down, defeatist pilot group of BJ. 90% of BJ pilots ARE the problem because their attitude is so **** poor. They bend over and jump higher. Why is it that BJ didn't have a pilot ALPA group from Day 1? Did they FOOLISHLY believe that history wouldn't repeat itself despite there never being an exception to the rule?

Code Pink has more bravery than the average BJ pilot who have been wrong for 15+ years.

Why not? Both parties mutually agreed to it, I just stood up for my organization's interests and achieved its demands. Contracts can be win-win you know. A contract must be mutually agreed upon to be legally valid. It cannot be coerced. Which is why everyone needs to vote down a contract that is not industry leading.

The problem with the airline industry is that unacceptable "compromise" is deeply ingrained in the defeatist culture of the employees. If you (the pilot group) believed in their unity, their self-worth, their professional value, then you would quickly realize there is no reason why you could not get an industry leading contract with every provision demanded built in, to include non-cleaning. Ever wonder why CEOs and VPs make more despite them being pretty mediocre? They spend their entire life and career fighting for pay and benefits.

Pardon the CNN link but Youtube has censored everything else.

Yeah, we're talking about our JB CULTure...

At least SW culture comes with a big paycheck and no expectations of pilot-janitor duties.

Our CULTure comes with a McDonald's paycheck and all the blue-pilot-janitor gloves you need!

 

I asked a question on how you value your own self worth. In which you didn’t say anything about it. A classic nothing fight really.

But I get it, you don’t value ALPA, your fellow pilots, or really it appears anyone in the matter.

What we have gathered is, that you enjoy passing judgment on other people. Believe that 90% of your peers are more or less scum and are responsible for all the problems here, And that ALPA is doing nothing.

Further more, you’ve now informed everyone here, that your fellow peers at jetBlue are not brave, having no further information on their background, what they have done in life or what adversities he or she has overcome in life.

Continuing on, the guys, you know the ones who bravely fought in WW2? Protecting our freedom? My godfather for example. Yeah those guys, I’d put my life on it that they wouldn’t vote NO, because their union (again having no control over that manual) didn’t have, “pilots shall never pick up trash” clause in it. I will put my life on it again, that those brave hero’s that you speak of, you know those ones, as you said “doing something greater than oneself when many others will not”.... yes those guys, I bet they would be the first ones to pick up that trash.

Get over yourself bro. Show some respect for the dudes that are working on your contract. You seem to be one of those guys who could have a billion dollars, the perfect family, a cute dog and a nice house, be healthy until your 105. But just miserable every day.

Btw. I do not clean planes. Just want to let you know that, it’s because I’m not brave enough to sick my hands in the pockets. Might be a dirty diaper in there.
