It’s ok, that 2.5k hour Skywest female is probably much more qualified, especially if she’s blonde.



Great idea to have such thoughts out there in the open on the very board that belongs to an airline you’re clearly targeting... is this the kind of attitude you had at the expo last year as well? Could be something to that. Seems like things worked out the way they should have.

You can find pictures of new hire classes. If they feel that they didn’t get hired because of reverse discrimination...let em.

Sounds like HR is weeding out the right ones.

You got me, it was the first thing I told HR on the way in. You must be a brunette.

Funny how the truth becomes something you should fear posting. Oh well, welcome to the new United. :rolleyes:

More invites must have gone out today, I just got one. Probably the remaining slots that need original invites did not RSVP for.

If you can't get hired and be a part of the 93+% of white male dudes then you clearly are lacking something. If you think total hours beyond minimum matter then you are clearly missing something as well. If you don't get it, don't let the door hit you on the way out. We don't need that attitude here. I was amazed with the quality of new hires in my class, and have heard over and over from LCA's and Captains on the line that by and large the vast majority of new hires are quality hires. If your not one of them than you need to look in the mirror and figure out why, because the answer isn't discrimination against the white dude. News flash were all still basically white dudes so no issue there getting hired as a white dude, young old or otherwise.

Thanks for the lecture. Get your head out of the sand. That 25 yr old blonde is interviewing first...Even amongst a vast sea of swinging weenahs. So the "but there's more white males" logic is moot.
