In other words, be cool and they will come.
This is why Jet Blue is one of my top choices to work at. This is the right mentality.

I agree. I got the full court press from a guy i flew with recently. It was a little much. I need to get educated on the issues before I make any decision and I found it off putting to be put on the spot to turn in a card right there at the end of the trip. Give us all a minute to figure out whats going on here before putting us to a decision.

Can I ask what you have done or are doing to get up to speed on the issues? It's pretty frustrating to fly with guys that have little or no understanding of our benefits. There have been countless emails from the company and ALPA. How someone can be on the fence is beyond me. The evidence has been presented and now it's time to make a decision one way or the other.
