Well welcome man.
Unfortunately we have some issues here but I think they will be solved and things will workout.
The school stuff is easy and relaxed.
If you have any issues ask for help or pm some of us.
See you on the line....oh that’s if a real airline doesn’t hire you(that should save me from getting attacked)

You think we won't be "expected" to play airplane janitor and we will get a ~40% compensation raise to bring us in line with our peers?

I hope you're right.

In the meantime I am trying to get the hell out of here and so is the rest of my class.

Oh and you have to pay $75 to ride in Mint. No ifs, ands, or buts. That means if the plane is full in economy and you refuse to pay for Mint, they will literally leave you or your family behind with seats open.

Welcome aboard!

Good for you I hope that it works out for you.(I mean that as you are obviously not happy here)

Yes I do think we will get a very good contract. Otherwise what is the point to all of this?

As for cleaning you don’t have to do it on a DH or when working. It is requested that when you non rev you help. It’s not a new policy it’s been there since the start of this place and when you and I accepted a job here. We can debate if it’s right or not but it’s not like they lied to you about it. Again not a defense just a fact and yes I am aware that other airlines don’t require this. The odd thing is I was on a SWA flight to DCA and watched the FAs straightening belts and others helping them. I honestly don’t know their policy so what was that about?

Default Why JetBlue Story?

For those who have done the f2f recenty, did you write the story by hand on the provided sheet or typed it with a computer on a separate sheet?

Typed it in the box on the same sheet (not by hand).

Just a question? What has gotten worse since you got here 2 years ago? It's just a question if you don't want to answer it then don't.

For me plenty has changed: Medical, Reserve am/pm, 78 hours and above was paid at time and a half, FAR 117, commuter policy, dependability policy, as well as profit sharing/ 8%.

This does not mean I don't want a market rate contract at all. It's just a question about perspective?

Those are all the things that got worse. You also missed many.

But you are the guy who said #keepsgettingbetter.

How do you reconcile those two statements?

Format your document to nearly match the supplied paper with box. Put a check mark on the front left corner of your paper in the tray (to know how your printer feeds the paper), and print it. Hold printed document behind the box and see if ti fits. Fix if doesn’t. Put the “boxed paper” in the tray, then print. Voila.

Literally eyeballed the format, and first print fit perfectly. It’s easy. Only used one sheet of paper.

Writing on the paper is probably ok, but they would have forwarded my application to the hospital...

Or just use Adobe and type it in the box.
