wolfriverjoe 1,340 #5 May 30, 2016 So did you tell him? Nobody expects a gorgeous woman to actuallyknow anything about aircraft, let alone how to fix them, let alone work for a... Oh, I don't know...

Nataly 38 #6 May 30, 2016 ryoder He works for MI6, so he couldn't get specific. That's probably it... Ironically, it is not the first time someone pulls out the "I'm a helicopter pilot" bullshit... I used to work on the Bell 412 as an Aviation Systems Technician in the Canadian Forces... (In "civilan terms" that's a helicopter mechanic...) One time I was part of a crew that went to CFB Halifax for the weekend... And in the bar that night, someone tried to tell me he was one of our pilots, just here for the weekend... And I was like "dude, no you are not"... If memory serves me, he was actually "just" a Tech, like me... I believe he might even have been lower ranking!! It's a long time ago now...

JohnMitchell 14 #8 June 1, 2016 You're a beautiful woman. Guys want to get to know you. Some of them make $hit up because they feel you're out of their league and they want to impress you. Don't tear 'em down to badly. Just give them a little pity smile. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

riggerrob 558 #10 June 1, 2016 Hah! Would you believe that I used to work out of CFB Shearwater, wrenching on Sea King helicopters ... even did a couple of cruises aboard HMCS Athabaskan and HMCS Iroquois? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Quote I have not yet had the opportunity to bust a phony but if it ever presents itself I will be without mercy. Depends on the circumstance. Stolen valor kind of thing? Yeah, let him have it.

Nataly 38 #12 June 1, 2016 JohnMitchell You're a beautiful woman. Guys want to get to know you. Some of them make $hit up because they feel you're out of their league and they want to impress you. Don't tear 'em down to badly. Just give them a little pity smile. I'm sorry but I am all out of sympathy for schmucks who think they need to make shit up to impress a girl. I am also all out of sympathy for men who claim it's sooooooooo hard to approach a woman. Oh really??? How hard do you think it is to dance all night in 6-inch heels??! You risk getting rejected?? BIG FUCKING DEAL. I risk getting raped, killed or worse (!) if I trust that random stranger who just walked up to me... Seriously... I think a lot of guys have NO CLUE about the dangers we constantly have to watch out for when they complain about how hard it is to approach us. And by the way, I'm a grown-ass woman. If I like a guy, I will walk up to him and start a conversation. I don't just stand there sending out brainwaves, hoping he will read my mind and come over to talk to me... And I promise you, a lot of guys behave like total pricks when *they* are not interested... So these days men do not have the monopoly on getting rejected... Yeah... All out of pity, I'm afraid.
