No explanation needed if you’ve got a question about a procedure look it up! That’s just good judgement and professionalism.

I’ve used wind shear precautions twice for take offs in the last week, the comment “wind shear = no take off” is really ignorant. So we are going to shut down the airline because LLWS Advisories are in effect? We all know that’s not how it works in the real world.

Ah, but see the last box? It says if you identify as two or more races, you can't be Hispanic or Latino. Other EEO boxes specifically make you check: White, Not Hispanic. It's quite presumptuous and I am now triggered, again.

just put Latino. No one is going to question you on it. If they do they know there could be a potential law suit.

All the other stuff is fluff and politics.

Let this thread die. None of us are in charge of the hiring department.
FIFY

APC filler

In today’s woke work world of self-identifying we’re all minorities, or women, or non/other-gendered; or are we?

I think you can identify as whatever you want and no one is allowed to ask any questions.

After briefly reading through your posted article, probably the contrary. Now those tools with the “arm tattoo sleeves” will be able to wear short sleeve pilot shirts. Go United! So diverse! 🙄

Uniforms keep everyones dress code relatively the same for the most part . With this new idea , there will be a lot of people that will bend the rules beyond what is allowed.
Fa’s and pilots with nose rings and visible tattoos will not be a good look . Don’t know how the flying public will respond to this .
But hey , bring back the pork chop sideburns and porn mustache , fu man chu’s while you’re at it .
Thats diverse right ???
