i need help : How do you extract certain type of information from a tuple to form it into a list?

Question

heres my code to input data into the tuple within a list.
i want to create a list of full time works only 
pdata_list = []
y = 0
while y!='x':
    print ('a. Add a new employee record')
    print ('b. Display all employees')
    print ('c. Search for employee record (view details)')
    print ('d. Delete an employee record')
    print ('e. Show all full-time employees')
    print ('f. Show all part-time employees')
    print ('x. Exit')
    print ('Choose an option (a to f) or x to Exit')
    y = input('Enter a letter: ')
if y == 'a':
    first_name = str(input("Enter your First Name: "))
    Surname = str(input("Enter your Surname: "))
    Job_title = str(input("Enter your Job Title: "))
    Fulltime = str(input( "Are you Full Time (Yes or No): "))
    Hourly_rate = float(input( "Enter your Hourly rate: "))
    Hperweek = float(input( " Enter your hours per week: "))

pdata_list.append((Surname,first_name,Job_title,Fulltime,Hourly_rate,Hperweek),)

if y == 'e':
    for i in pdata_list:
         if Fulltime == 'Yes' or 'yes':
            print ()
            print ('First Name: ',i[1])
            print ('Surname: ',i[0])
            print ('Job Title: ',i[2])
            print ('Full Time: ',i[3])
            print ('Hourly Rate:£',i[4])
            print ('Hours per Week: ',i[5])
here my code to find the full time works only and to display them ^^^^^

When examining the tuple, the status is no longer in the "Fulltime" variable.  Also, you can only combine complete comparisons with "or", but here you could use a case conversion and do just one test: 
py
             if i[3].lower() == 'yes':
