Re: Being a smoker in the airlines.

When I was working up north it wasn't that hard to sneak a smoke between flights, in the Airlines its almost impossible now without a huge headache... My advise is to read the book Allen Carrs easy way to quit smoking and be done with it!

I have to agree with 737Mech... I can tell you at Canjet, no conversations include discussions about applications with Jazz, especially since the peak of hiring there is over...
