Not guilty? Would you really want to wake up in the morning with that face next to you?

Maybe I’m just too old, but creepy doesn’t turn me on

Glut of CS degrees. EEs and such are in much lower supply. Everyone you can imagine went into computer science in the 90s/2000s. Seriously. Where I live CSes are a dime a dozen.

I suspect she’s still an intern.

She sounds like a Fans Only candidate.

...NASA engineers have the time and energy to work part-time jobs in mall stores? Would not have guessed.

‘Girls named Tiffany’

I’ve been in Aerospace for 30+ years. When I graduated with my Aeropace engineering Degree my class was less than 10% Women.

Fast Forward 30 years, the Woke Aerospace Corp I work for has an Affirmative Action Policy to have 50% Women managers.

Women aren’t engineers because of Toxic Masculinity or “The Patriarchy”.

As a general group, they would rather work at Tiffany’s than get dirty & make things work.

Veronica Corningstone : Excuse me.

Ron Burgundy : What are you doing?

Veronica Corningstone : I need this machine so I can watch a tape for a story.

Ron Burgundy : I’m using the tape. I’m showing Jeffrey my Emmy tape. We are watching history.

Veronica Corningstone : Mr. Burgundy, I’m a professional, and I would like to be able to do my job.

Ron Burgundy : Big deal. I am very professional.

Veronica Corningstone : Mr. Burgundy, you are acting like a baby.

Ron Burgundy : I’m not a baby, I am a man. I am an anchorman.

Veronica Corningstone : You are not a man. You are a big fat joke.

Ron Burgundy : I’m a man who discovered the wheel and built the Eiffel Tower out of metal and brawn. That’s what kind of man I am. You’re just a woman with a small brain. With a brain a third the size of us. It’s science.

Veronica Corningstone : I will have you know that I have more talent and more intelligence in my little finger than you do in your entire body, sir.

Ron Burgundy : You are a smelly pirate hooker.

Veronica Corningstone : You look like a blueberry.

Ron Burgundy : Why don’t you go back to your home on Whore Island?

Veronica Corningstone : Well, you have bad hair.

Ron Burgundy : [insulted] What did you say?

Veronica Corningstone : I said... your hair... looks stupid.

IF she is really a NASA employee then she is paid according to the civil service schedule.

I don’t believe her at all

She ain’t a rocket scientist. She’s got a chem eng degree. She’s making close to 90k a year. She’s living beyond her means

My daughter is currently studying aeronautical engineering at Embry Riddle University in Daytona Beach. She’s also AFROTC. She wants to be a test pilot and eventually work for NASA. Nothing to do with diversity or any of that other stuff you mentioned … she just wants to do this.
