I did a reverse phone number look-up and the phone number in the ad is for Celebrity Transportation Inc, Warrenville, IL.
What passengers would a company called "Celebrity Transport" have that would require only women drivers?

I think the only way they could get away with this is either a) you're driving a van for female inmates or battered women's shelter victims of domestic(male) violence. Do you remember a few years back when this guy tried to sue HOOTERS for not hiring male waiters :lol: I would not waste too much time trying to get hired there but it would be interesting to find out why they want females only. Keep us updated. :wink:

Sounds like an Escort Service.
