Oh look, Hyperboy helping JetBlue recruit pilots again. Just can't help yourself can you. JetBlue not being able to staff the airline is one of the only points of contract negotiations leverage we could have, but you choose the airline over your fellow pilots. Again. UN-F#$+&NG-REAL.

That's another "enhancement" this year. You gotta get married like the rest of us now. No more "domestic partner"

Leveling the playing field... everyone has to pay to play.
Even at NY gayest airline...

Remember that newbs and hopefuls. You'll get a lesson in sexual "tolerance" straight (no pun intended) from work on a regular basis. Because sexual preference is part of work... apparently... now...
Why you'll even be solicited to "volunteer" to show your pride.
for the record I couldn't care any less about whos doin who why or where... I just don't really think it should be part of anything to do with the work environment.

From: Square root of the variance and average of the variation
Pretty spot on. Just hit 3rd year pay. I'm standing at DFW getting ready to commute and an Envoy rep asks if I'm happy at B6 and tries to recruit me. Says it will ,"probably be a pay cut but you'll be at AA in 6 years." Uh yeah, it's a pay cut. But ironically, a year ago it honestly was not far off.

- Training pay slashed to $2000/month from $2700/month because you get to stay at the awesome Lodge and eat cafeteria food.
- No more $6,000 bonus after your 1st year.
- Hotel locations/quality on the decline. Who doesn't love a 28 hr layover by the airport?
- Putting more unpaid responsibilities and duties on pilots.
For anyone applying, I encourage you to talk to current JB pilots when you see them on layovers or airports to get the real truth, unless they are not wearing an ALPA lanyard, then just ignore them!
