JetBlue Reserve/Lineholder ?

Sounds like apartheid. And there sure seems to be a widening rift between the haves and the have-nots, regardless of HOW either group prefers to spin it.

Classic management techinique, divide and conquer, but Needleman did his homework on this one. At any airline, it is usually the senior people who are the driving force behind any change and/or organizing attempt. By separating out the more agressive sheep and making them the sheepdogs (stock options, special "treats"), the rest of the herd will knuckle under.

Same with the 5 year contract. Don't say nuthin, or agressive sheep become lambchops (well, mutton, anyway).

I wouldn't be a bit surprised if those EXACT terms were used when they were organizing the company.

But, far be it from me not to give credit where credit is due. It is really quite brilliant from a management perspective. Sucks if you're a sheeple, though.

Baaaaahbye,

"Like it or leave!" Clearly one of the major problems here at B6. Something make me think this guy is wearing this thing in the middle of summer.

For what it's worth, I think this is a great company. Then Again I'm just a Fleece Windbreaker.

Speaking of summer and leather..... I was walking through the JFK crew lounge last week and saw a JB guy wearing a brand new leather jacket. It was only 93 degrees outside but I'm sure he couldn't wait to show it off. Side note... if you happen to be reading this and it was you.... yes, you did look very stupid!

I saw a guy out at the RC field. Everything he had, his model, his flight box, his clothes, his car, EVERYTHING was plastered with jetBlue crap.

It's one thing to like where you work, it's another thing to be a dork. This guy was a dork.

Guess that makes you a dork!

Which may be true. But there are many grades of dork, many of which go on lead productive roles in society.

And while I may be in the upper range of functional dorks, where, unlike yourself, natural procreation might be a possibility, this guy was definately running for Dork Grand Poo-Bah. Fortunately, Darwin limits the reproductive opportunities for this type.
