Yes, I think in general most guys dont look down at all on the FA's, its a self imposed opinion they have, and there are some techies that look down on the FA's. Who the hell cares? I dont , I just go to work, take my dough and go back to a REAL life!. They can like me, hate me, be jealous of me, look down on me, whatever, it doesnt bother me.Many a time I;m told "The computer does all the flying, you sit there all night and just watch, etc etc. And I think too many guys take the bait on this. It is just a completely uneducated opinion, shouldnt take it out on em, just educate them. All I know is I treat each person as an individual and don't tar with one brush. As for this incident, jeez, if this is a major gossip point, well obviously your life sucks, go and do something uselful with it, I know that I am. thats my 2 cents worth, (sorry maybe more if you collect your allowances! haha! )
