I got asked at work to go on the selection committee for some new job roles that had been advertised. Halfway through the selection process , I got told from HR if there had been any woman apply we are to pick them for the job no matter what!
I told them to find them someone else and explained to HR this is a serious job we perform and I don’t just pick a certain gender to make your stats look good , I pick who is best for the job regardless of sex , race or religion. Fair to say I’ve never been asked again !!

What did he actually say?

There was a shocked response from the room, which prompted Qantas' CEO Alan Joyce to step in, and make light of the situation.

"Akbar said he was going to stop saying controversial things. He lasted 10 minutes — 10 minutes," Mr Joyce said.

"Is that all we're going to get out of him. Ten minutes. Sorry Akbar."

Mr Al Baker continued.

"You know, I have to put a little bit of fireworks around to motivate people to ask more questions," he said.

"You answer her, I will keep quiet," he said referring to Mr Joyce.
