Just in case anyone was wondering... I found a much easier way to take care of my problem.
In JobA, trigger a blocked JobB. If JobB failed, then set JobA as unstable. Now within JobA, if it is unstable, send out an email with the committers. No need to send any changes info down into JobB or anything. Mondays are much better than Fridays.
