Although I am in perfect health, and in possession of a valid class-one California driving license, I am running【C1】______problems getting employment in the trucking industry because I am【C2】______.
You may have heard that in recent years, more and more women have been entering the trucking【C3】______. But here’s the catch; in most【C4】______, women are able to enter the trucking profession【C5】______as part of a husband-wife driving team. As for putting a single woman【C6】______with a male co-driver for long-distance hauling, the companies that I’ve been to【C7】______, on the【C8】______that they could get into【C9】______for condoning fornication and adultery.
【C10】______two drivers sharing long-distance hauling may very likely lead to a falling out,【C11】______driving and sleeping shifts to keep running 20or 22 hours a day are expected to improve the situation; employers have told me they feel that inevitably I and a male co-driver would wind up spending all our time in the sleeper berth! In short, it’s【C12】______that because I’m a woman, I’m incapable of behaving responsibility on the road, of【C13】______any responsible attitude in my co-driver who, of course, would be incapable of regarding me as anything【C14】______a sex object, placed conveniently【C15】______his disposal by the firm while he’s on the road.

There you have a nice circular argument【C19】______firms use to protect themselves【C20】______uppity women who dare to stay single, try to gross $ 14,000 to $ 50,000 income yearly. God forbid!
