Default Man,,,I have opened up a can of worms

Message deleted by Celebrity Trucking

Well I deleted what I said a few days ago. After getting the encouraging emails from all of you out there, I wish I would not have. It wasn't anything bad or negative, it was just misunderstood. Thanks everyone for your positive support, I know that I am not going to make everyone happy, thanks for telling me that, because I forget that minor detail sometime. Much Love

So your hiring practices are now based upon sex discrimination?

No that is not it, and I am sorry that you took it like that. I guess after reading it again, I can see how you can misunderstand it. For those who have read it already, I apoligize if I offended anyone out there. That was not my intentions. All are welcome to apply. There is no need to discriminate, we are all brothers and sisters in one special man's eye sight. Since your name have Rev in it, I am sure that you know who I am talking about I apologize again Everyone

Unfortunately, or fortunately, depending on how you look at it. Specifically requesting woman to apply is illegal. While I am a woman, and if I were a trucker, maybe I would consider it. But, then again I would also expect to be paid, the same, if not more than a man, and be treated equally to my male counter parts.

Mentioning religion in your following reply wasn't a good idea either, because now you'll offend those who are not believers, or believe in a religion that doesn't have one superior being at the top.

Seems like (and I mean this in a some what humorous way), that you keep putting your foot in your mouth. I hope your business practices are handled better, than your postings.... :lol:

Strange also that there doesnt seem to be a company named Celebrity trucking listed anywhere...Even on Safestat.

I read the orginal post ... and I didn't find it offensive in any way. I understood where the gentleman was coming from on trying to encourage more female drivers to consider checking out his company. It's a known fact that females make good drivers, we have to try harder, work harder and continuly learn more about the profession in order to prove ourself .

Nor did I for4roses. I too think that it was his intent on saying........."hey, we will give women a fair opportunity".................dont kid yourself, employers are in tune with the insurance stats and accident rates of male & female drivers of the profession. It is their business to know this.
