Another owner picked her up from a trip and pulled into a hotel parking lot, talking about sending her to school for typed equipment and asking her if he should go inside and "get a room". She resigned rather than having to work a job with that type of undertone.

True story

Sad part is, it's all pure jealousy. NO ONE is complaining regionals are hireing "under qualified" women FO's for $25 bucks an hour, because they're hiring everyone in sight. Everyone only identifies an "un-qualified" female at a major carrier which is a job they want for themselves.
Definitely worthy of the BS card
