I think someone needs to quote the thread where she claims she got the job cuz she is female. I think i remember seeing somewhere else her saying that she doesn't think that is why she got the job.
I can't wait to wake up in the morning and see where this thread goes!!!

No she didn't. It appears that way but when you read the post slowly, that is not what she said but you guys all think we got our jobs with 300 TT and a private pilot's license anyways so what's the use in arguing?

I do not at all want to undermine Hotmama's accomplishment's, but we would all be very foolish to think that being a female in this industry doesn't have its advantages, and won't get you ahead of many other more qualified people. I mean the government admits to that, they call it affirmative action.

Well, apparently it took me 5 years of applying at UPS and FedEx (never did interview at FedEx) to "get ahead" of all the white guys that knew someone in management. Of course, it's ok to get ahead with less experience than someone else if you are a guy and know the right person right?
We might not get so defensive about it if some guys didn't throw it in our face every chance they get.

I guess we can watch this dead horse get beat even more by people with short memories.

Everybody should read the post on DAL hiring in the Majors section., page 2 to be exact. HOTMOMMA Pilot thinks we would slash our mothers throat to fly for DAL, us "RJ drivers" as she called us. Apparantly the low that the industry has come to, is our fault, She seems to forget that the cushy job she got was probably given to her becuase she is a female!!!!!!!!!!!! I love how these people that fly for the "majors" start bashing us just the second they get to move on from that "RJ" job that got them there in the first place!!!!!!!!!!!!!
