Women get hired first!!!

I got the CFI's are a dime a dozen rant from the guy that owns the FBO over at Manitowoc...magnus aviation. I'm glad I waited a bit and eventually went on to work for Jeff Baums charter deparment. Got a ton of experience over there and was paid pretty good. The last year I worked there I was pulling in almost 39,000 a year flying Aztecs, 414's and other piston twins.

Hi!

I've seen the woman thing, from both ends.

My wife went to her boss to ask for a promotion or a raise, and he told he he only promoted men, and to quit bothering him. The weird thing was, he was upset when she left the company!

In 2 different industries, I was turned down for over 10 jobs because I was a guy.

I also heard, from a manager in a 3rd industry: "If this type of applicant (referring to me) doesn't work, we can always get more." She lasted 2 years as the manager and then moved on to another town (she had to run fast to make it out of town).

My advice if you meet a situation that doesn't work for you:
Try, try again. Just keep trying. That's all you can do. Also, don't whine during your next interview about the problems you're having getting hired.

PS-I believe that in GRB you can at least get a part-time instructor job, if not full time. PT could lead to FT down the road.
