B6 to Sell FIVE A-320s

[JP4user]

I just had to drop the ignore.

Again? What is this the third or fourth time? A little OCD there Sparky?

And then I see this. I am........crushed.......humilated by my past. I will once again be condemmed to emptying trash and cleaning floors for minimum wage.

You shouldn't be. What you should be humiliated about is using your past to justify your present and future job description. And what do mean once again? You are already condemmed to doing this type of janitorial work now.

Because, by JP4user's standard, I am dirt.

Not just by my standards, but by professional pilots everywhere in the airline industry. Many laugh about this particular notion you and others vainly try to rationalize and then respond with histronics when someone laughs about it.

Of course, JP4 has learned that as 3210LT, he should never divuldge information about his past or his current company, because then others could point to how his particular situation has contributed to the "downfall of the industry".

It really makes no difference, but that sure seems to bother some of the more sensitive Smurfs. At the end of the day I really don't care how you prostitute yourselves.

What is this fixation about 32? Did he do that much damage to your psychological well being. You keep bringing it up so much I have to question it.

JP4 has positioned himself as a sucessfull pilot in a mysterious position above any involvement in this industry's current position. This allows him to throw stones from a position of protection. Quite cowardly.

If speaking the truth that elicits your responses is cowardly than call me a coward. Sometimes the truth is a difficult thing to accept. I know it must be for you becasue you chaulk it up like this.

Nothing mysterious at all Sparky (I know how much you love being called that seeing as how you have devoted 7 posts just becasue of the word).

I took a lump sum amoun that would bring a tear to your eye, bailed and am flying a large corporate aircraft which pays far in excess of the top Blue wages. That is all the info you're going to get or need to know. One of the reasons I did bail is this industry is rotting from within from those who suffer from SJS, PFT kids and others who jump at the chance to work for whatever crumbs are thrown your way. Like on your 190's for example.

Anyhow, if my fate is to return to the broom and bucket, it will be because B6 failed.

Look at the bright side, you are still maintaining currency if it happens.

If B6 fails, I will at least have worked for a company that has tried a different approach to the industry. So far they have been truthfull and forthcoming and actually employs leadership by example.

So far the experiment is starting to show some real cracks. I know you guys didn't need any Viagra for the last few days after seeing your stock go up a tad (what was it trading for last year?) However is this new approach you mentioned selling aircraft that produce revenue becasue they are coming up on heavy checks and replace them with ones that cost 3 times as much?

Some approach you have there. Or is the approach to stray away from a proven LCC model and deploy an Embraer product and subsidize the high costs by paying lousy rates on it? You are right though about one thing with their truth and honesty. They told you the rates whether you liked it or not. Is anohter facet of this approach about signing a 5 year contract so they can get rid of you if you don't play ball and clean cabins or other cult like job descriptions?

JP4, were you the guy in class who always thought you were saying funny, cutting things and then ended up being the only guy laughing at your remarks?

No wrong guy. Sounds like another one slipped through the cracks in your HR process. Was your entire class filled with this type including yourself? From your posts it would seem so.

At least I can afford the membership at the country club. What can you afford with the 190 wage rates? The YMCA? Or is it the YWCA for you? Are both of them out of your financial reach?

Maybe you could offer your janitorial expertise for a break on the membership dues.

Is your self worth directly proportionate to your pay check? Or is it the being in the cockpit of an airliner? Personally I place a great deal of emphasis on integrity whether janitor or mailman.

My instincts tell me that you have very little intergrity. Perhaps some time down at the YMCA would do you good...get down and dirty with some of us colorful types.

 

[bluejuice787]

And I bet you did it all with your mirrored Ray Bans and cool that made all the ladies crazy.

None of those seems to work. I think the plaid polyester pants did it every time.

Funny you mentioned mirrored Ray Bans. One of your guys was groveling for a jumpseat on an airplane we were airlining to reposition the other day.

I'll bet you would never guess what kind of shades was hanging from his shirt pocket.

Sparky ( I use that term for you slower Smurfs) he brought it up first. I am truly sorry for you if the honest answer illicited this type of response.

Too bad you didn't place the same amount of integrity for your own sense of self worth and profession.

 

[Uppercrust]

Does Jetblue train you on how to clean the airplane during indoc? Like, do you go out to a real airplane and clean it? No flame intended, just curious.

JP4, were you the guy in class who always thought you were saying funny, cutting things and then ended up being the only guy laughing at your remarks? Oh yeah, then as now you were not perseptive enough to know or care.
NEW STANDARD DISCLAIMER:
1. 190 rates are low. B6 leadership knows this and I trust them to fix it like they did 320 pay. They have a track record for doing what is right.
2. Cleaning the cabin is a different thought process. But no different than helping your loadmaster with a quick turn in the military. Its a Leadership/teamwork thing I am surprised more folks don't understand. (and hot young FA's smell better than loadmasters and their smiles of appreciation warm my old heart) I am sorry that JP4user did not understand leadership while he served in the military. Some never get it. (p.s. we do not clean the $hitters)
3. Contract/No Union--Screw ALPA. Paid dues for 8 years at NWA and recieved nothing because I was so junior. Good leadership at B6 goes a long way. The worst day at B6 is far better than a good day at ALPA.

Now I return you to your previously scheduled B6 bashfest.(bash fest?)

I guess I am not on ignore anymore. LMAO

This is the best you can do? Regurgitate your old post. I'd reply with the same response but why waste the bandwidth?

Uppercrust had a good question. Can you answer it? Are yo giving IOE in cabin cleaning? With your janitorial background you would be a shoe in.

 

[JP4user]

They try to but who knows. The one scheduled for cleaning IOE with StarvingBLUEtail may get sold out from under them.

.....Dude,
The funniest part of this is giving you a re run and watching you screw yourself into the ceiling. Since you are so rich, I shouldn't make you mad, because your country club might use my new janitor for hire services. Just watch the WSJ and weep Sparky, because I am a firm believer that it was your negative Karma that is putting us back in a decient financial position. Keep that hate coming until your anuerism bursts.
Blue to you,
