Knave,

Absolutely with you on the career front...
I've actually started to gauge women's reactions on the 'job front'; in order to assess how superficial they can be. I'm in a peculiar position in that quite often my friends sell me as my their friend the 'pilot' who has taken them flying etc. Ladies don't understand that you can have a Private Pilot's Licence and fly small aeroplanes for fun, or as I am, training to upgrade my licence. Any how, I've had a few bizarre experience where female friends of friends have been very forward on a night out and then withdrew completely when I tell them my day job is an Aerospace Engineer.

Very shallow and ruthless when they want to be...
Just watch 'Take Me Out', when a bloke says he lives at home.

Interesting stuff.
