Yea I had an easy ride to getting hired. Barely qualified with thousands of hours, TPIC, multiple types, company instructor, and board member of non profit organization along with years of showing face at job fairs. Completely under qualified compared to my class mates. 
(sarcasm for those who don’t pick it up)
I know plenty of minorities still getting overlooked. Doesn’t seem all that easy for them lately.

Oh wait, I haven't seen any. But yeah, it must be dem females and minorities stealing our jerbs.
Don't fall prey to the scapegoating. I'm not sure any of us would want to trade places with a black guy in America.

Exactly, when I go to the airport or look at the pilot rosters, it is all brown and black chicks!

No one is talking about stealing jobs etc. I’m a white male, I feel no guilt or shame because of it so quit jamming this bs down my throat.

Also the pool of available candidates has it's roots in grade school... who was interested in aviation. The fact that young white guys have a cultural affinity for airplanes determines the demographics of the pilot pool.
The issue then becomes how do you select from the pool of QUALIFIED candidates most of whom are white men. Not because other people can't be qualified, but they choose to do other things in life.

Trouble is, I have not ran across anything lately with the general public that qualifies for TOTD. I still have my vision and hearing. What has happened?

I nominate a (UAL?) ramper night before yesterday on the Newark employee Lot F bus. They run every 10 minutes, and pull out of 'A' on every :00, :10, 20, 30, 40, 50 past the hour. This one was the :50 one. She goes "are you leaving now?" to the driver. Driver says he will at :50. Her response: "It was :50, 40 seconds ago." 
I'd like to see whose clock is synchronized to what source. Calling a driver out for seconds is pretty low, IMO. They're taking you to the employee lot and you'll be there in under 10 minutes. And especially not cool considering it was 1:50am.
