Re: Cool news story about a Southwest Pilot !
Doug mentioned 22 letters of recommendation. Now let's see, her dad is a SWA capt. Gee I wonder how she got to know so many SWA pilots?
I'm sure dad didn't do his trip briefing like this, "Ok stick to the book, back me up, you're the boss on your leg, and write a letter for my daughter and you'll have a good trip."
But I bet she got introduced to a whole truckload of pilots at family functions!
It's blindness to admit that race and sex has no affect on airline hiring processes either. United publicly admits they practice "affirmative action." Nancy Stuke would tell you what pile you are in. For the record, I was in the biggest pile - "white, male, non-military."
Delta openly favors military pilots, particularly USN.
I hate discrimination. In any form. Reverse or otherwise. |
