JetBlue Latest and Greatest

You guys do understand some of us had carry in trips that were awarded way before the picket was announced right.

My trip that covered Jan 31st was awarded to me somewhere around dec 12th.

Ever try and drop a carry in trip? Nearly impossible.

Keep trying to discredit someone who speaks out against your soft-on-the company give-them-some-more-time stance. It will not work.

Because you can’t. You have no credibility. You come on here and shout down everyone except yourself. You’re a broken record. Meanwhile guys sacrificed their own time and money to support our cause and you couldn’t be bothered.

We all have a part to play but sometimes when the chips are down the loudest talkers have left the room.

That's not true. The MEC never said say nice things about a career at JB or suppress *accurate* negative opinions about JB. They themselves we're taking a softer tone until recently, but that was them giving management a chance to take a better path, a path management was NEVER going to take. But, they tried.

You guys mistook the MEC taking the high road as "things are going to be different" here. They never we're going to be different. So now you guys are finally showing up to the party wondering what happened and lashing out at the guy who told you this was going to be our path.

You are delusional man. You were paid for your time away from home. We were not. We PAID to be there. Whether it was child care, a lost day of work, hotel rooms paid out of pocket, gas money to drive, etc.

You have lost all credibility. It’s a shame too because much of your message was correct. Your delivery is just terrible. And your actions don’t back up your big words on this message board. You call out guys on here who make actual sacrifices. You can’t step up to the plate when given the opportunity.

There is nothing weak about this economy. Perhaps you are thinking of O’Bama’s economy.

Ha Ha, so next time instead of finagling the days off to rally / picket, I should “sacrifice” and bid for a trip so that others can have the privilege to attend?

For me it wasn’t so much using my days off, spending $$, etc. It was sacking up to go in and “bite” the hand that feeds me (and I actually like working here). I had no idea if any significant numbers were gonna show up. But walking over from my nearby hotel, rounded the corner to HQ, saw the mass of blue suited cats, my mood went from “What the hell am I doing?” to “F Yeah!!”

So yeah, sorry man, I attended all the events. Thanks for helping me see what a greedy pr!ck of a pilot I’ve been. Ah, a rainy night here…time for scotch
