This proves extremely detrimental to the operation as the ability to fix known issues in OTP are never adequately addressed. Rather than implementing an industry standard known fix the millennial with a tie idea is chosen instead. The results are obvious. What happens next is equal vexing as the management structure or decision making process never changes. Instead Jetblue stickers airplanes with a tag line blaming ATC.
It doesn't matter if you are on an EDCT or ground delay program the simple fact is Jetblue can't board a 150 seat aircraft in the time it allots with the man power it allots. Add catering issues, ramper issues or any other little hiccup and you have Jetblue OTP ranking 12/12.
All this is outside of any pay and benefits discussion.
Although I do not have the facts to support my statement I would suggest OTP was better prior to all the contract negotiation issues. A motivated pilot group can erase many, many management failures.

At a previous employer, we the pilots used to get nasty gram emails from management blaming us for delays, and in company wide emails HR would use phrases like 'work as a team' and talk about how our pilots can help the operation and get us out on time. Newsflash, we can't.
My job truly begins when that door closes. I can't control catering, potable water, boarding/deplaning etc. Those are far out of my control. The company needs to realize that with the staffing we have, and the motivation (or lack thereof) of most of us, turning a plane in 30 min at a busy station just isn't going to happen.
