| As the airliner pushed back from the gate, the flight attendant gave the passengers the usual information regarding seat belts, etc. Finally, she said, "Now sit back and enjoy your trip while our captain, Rachel Cole and crew take you safely to your destination." Tim, sitting in the 8th row, thought to himself, "Did I hear her right; is the captain a woman? I think I better have a scotch and soda." When the attendants came by with the drink cart, he said, "Did I understand you right? Is the captain a woman?" "Yes," said the attendant, "In fact, this entire crew is female." "My God," said Tim, "I'd better have two scotch and sodas. I don't know what to think of all those women up there in the cockpit." "That's another thing," said the attendant, "we no longer call it the cockpit. Now it's the BOX OFFICE." |
