Anecdotal stories are true. We all have them. Listen. There’s always going to be more white males at the airlines and except for nursing and teaching, everywhere else too.

Based on my observations at the airlines, women and minorities get the interviews first. Not necessarily the job. But the interviews.

Interviews lead to the job.

Side note......I kinda love that the SkyWest dude got sent home right away.

I was secretly hoping the Skywest dude would hang out with DAL guy a bunch and then ask for a LOR at Delta. :D

Have you seen the programming on history and discovery channel lately? Nothing but reality trash there as well.

Just stick with PBS and HBO. They’ve served me well for a decade.

I flew with the SKW guy, actually great dude, very nice and humble. He progressed far and fast, at a young age. The TV thing was just a lark for him.

Your whole persona is all about criticizing and correcting people for being narrow-minded and intolerant. Which makes YOU.....narrow-minded and intolerant. Try to look at it from that perspective.

Try the Science, Nat Geo, and Smithsonian channels, but even there you have to filter out shows that have an “agenda”. :(

I agree, no one should be paying for cable these days when streaming is available, and HD antenna for sports is free.

Getting this thread back on track, he's highly experienced retired AA and a media guy (like Les Abend). But TOTD for the terrible acting and sunglasses both inside the building and inside the simulator.
