I don't know why, but when you tell someone you are an ALT they ask, "Are you a JET?" To which we answer, "No, I'm a private." JET's actually call the program their company. Whenever the program does something for them they say, "My company provides this wonderful book." And people ask, "What company do you work for?" Then they say, "Oh, I work for JET."
