LixyChick---Sorry,I'm a little touchy(both ways)about the gender
thing.We have two daughters.In school,one was a mediocre
basketball player.One was an excellant softball pitcher!I'm not
saying this because she's my daughter.I was a pitcher and I
think that I know enough about it,to recognise talent.I used to
get pissed off,when they would put in someone,who couldn't
pitch,worth a shit,because she was a girl&he was a boy!I had
the same type of thing as a foreman.I had one woman on my
crew and management wanted me to show favoritism.I wouldn't
do it.I always believed in"Equal pay for an equal job."If you do what is assigned to you,you get promoted.If you don't"Good Bye"
The work is a reflection on me!I also wouldn't ask anyone to do
anything,that I wouldn't do myself.I was also,the head mechanic,
so I worked with my crew. Irish
