Default WSJ Ad

This is not a unique sentiment, but a rather well-spoken example of so many who come to NetJets these days:

It’s very concise, however, it won’t be long until some company leg humpers come on and tell us we are all crazy.

Do only your job, write the plane up where it breaks, don’t fly hungry or tired. Then, watch the wheels fall off while drinking a cup of coffee.

If everyone did that, negotiations would be done in 3 mos.

Finally. I don't want to poop in management's yard. I want to step on their throats.

Surface Bargaining = Surface Effort

from me.

I've seen NJASAP put ads in the WSJ back when I was there but this one's pretty good. Is NJA going to be a career destination or just a stepping stone to the major airlines?

We have a much better QOL and much better compensation than when you all started and better than we've ever had it. The essence of the job itself has never changed. Most of your complains are about the nature of the job itself. We are a business jet, on demand operation, the nature of the job, the daily life on the road, the flying, the constant schedule changes, this is the nature of our job. You knew what the job was when you signed up.

All your complaints about the nature of the job are completely irrelevant when it comes to compensations. When you get your quarter-million dollar increase, then what? suddenly you are going to love the job? Give me a break. Most of you have always hated this job and got stuck here because the 121 didn't hire you, or furloughed you, or went bust. So you it's really your life choices you are complaining about. This is not a job for you, never was, no money will ever make it better. Time to do yourself a favor and go be happy.

I understand that ad is just a weapon, but very immature.

Go back to your cubicle and hot cup of coffee until you need to kneel before Niro-again.

I love the ad. I kind of like my job. I am happy to fight for a mich inproved offer. It will always suck a little bit, but management is doing a historically bad job at simply running the daily operations and that makes it harder and not better than ever before. They simply refuse to solve crew food issues. They overload dispatch into making many more mistakes than ever before. They overload every department to near failure almost every day. Watch training as it totally implodes, even with the now lowered hiring numbers they announced recently (I'm not talking about experience levels, just the amount of pilots they plan on hiring). The mismanagement is actually probably going to help us get an improved contract offer since they need the pilots to fix their mistakes more and more every day.

I will admit that it will always be an on-demand job and will never have major airline QOL, but there is room for some reasonable inprovements through punative OT when they schedule poorly. If it is expensive enough, they will improve the scheduling to do something about it. That said, anyone that wants majors QOL needs to go to the majors.
