Dizkneelande 1,101 Posted January 15, 2024 “The initiative is part of the FAA’s "Diversity and Inclusion" hiring plan, which says "diversity is integral to achieving FAA's mission of ensuring safe and efficient travel across our nation and beyond." The FAA’s website shows the agency’s guidelines on diversity hiring were last updated on March 23, 2022.” Im never flying again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

seafoam1 3,025 Posted January 15, 2024 I'm 100% for making forced DEI on any group or any company illegal. If a company wants to be fully black owned and black run company, I am all for them to have that right to do so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

peenie 1,915 Posted January 15, 2024 Is autistic just a kinder way of saying retarded? ETA, There are a lot of people who have disabilities (physical and mental) that do housekeeping at my job and they’re great. I think they are very good at their job and add a certain joy to the environment because they tend to be a bit more friendly and kind. I wish that more efforts, like the ones described in the article, were happening to employ these types of people in jobs besides cleaning. I bet there is some untapped talent in many of them.

iam90sbaby 2,611 Posted January 15, 2024 If I ever walked onto a plane and the entire crew was trans and/or black I'd walk right off. You can include Muslims in that too. I don't risk my life on diversity hires 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't risk my life on diversity hires Well stay out of Atlanta and Newark. I find the complete opposite is true. Black people work very hard and efficiently in all aspects at the airport. Atlanta is the busiest airport in the WORLD and blacks are doing a fantastic professional hard job of moving people safely around. Even on the flight, Delta is usually mostly black or people of color and….I don’t know what rock you’ve been under, but male flight attendants have always been predominantly gay, since I was a child. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Atlanta is the busy airport in the WORLD and blacks are doing a fantastic professional hard job of moving people safely around. I flew in and out of Newark for years. Most of the people on those flights on Monday mornings and Thursday nights are white people driving in from outside Newark. I honestly don't think I have ever seen a black pilot in all my years of flying from that airport honestly. I'm sure there are some, but I didn't see them.
