Interesting, why is that?

I'm sure that based on in-depth, wide-ranging analysis covering various industries, across many different levels of experience, he was able to somehow control for all other factors and make an objective determination that potential employers immediately reject any applicant that mentions the word "pilot" either verbally or in writing. Under no circumstances should anyone take any personal responsibility for any unrealized professional goals. I'm guessing that HR directors from companies like IBM and J.P. Morgan sit around conspiring against pilots, doing everything they can to keep us down. We are all doomed.
