goat-tee in JetBlue?

[Jmoney]

Maybe

Our goatee pilots are cool maaaan. I've heard the male flight attendants here absolutely love them!!!!

Maybe the GAY FAs love them! Nothing quite says "I'm gay as hell!" quite like growing a facial hair bullseye around one's mouth.......

Money Shot!

I saw a SWA FO with a skateboard strapped to his bag.

That was swa/fo, and it wasn't a backpack with a skateboard, he was moving his belongings and his trailer..........:laugh:

I don't care who you are, that's some funny shizzle!

Sea Stories?

Ship Captains wore ponytails and errings..

Supposedly, the earring was to pay for a sailor's burial on land instead of at sea. The ponytail was to aid in pulling an overboard crewmember out of the water.

The whole " no facial hair " has nothing to do with looking professional, it had to do with O2 masks....guess what, times have changed just like the O2 masks.
Wasn't there threads about hats and looking professional? Now a lot of airlines are doing away with them. Leather jackets and looking professional? Most airlines have them too.

If that was the case, I wouldn't be able to stop licking my lips

ROFL! I just spewed my coffee!

Never could figure out why a guy would want his mouth to look like a part of a womans anatomy some where down there between her legs.

If what you're seeing still looks like that, tell her that crockett, tubbs, and the miami sound machine are looking for her...they have a glass of white zin. with her name on it.

I think Goatees are pretty cool. It is ok to be an individual.

You can't even relate to pubic hair, let alone facial hair-facials, you're probably current in that category.

 

[Spidey]

Unless I'm behind the times, and I usually am, aren't European pilots allowed to have facial hair? If so, are they all considered unprofessional for having beards or goatees? Are we really that worried about facial hair to think it's unprofessional? Wow...


SLC

It says, "I'll have sex with any gay flight attendent, and I'll be on the bottom." Other than that, you are behind the times. Do you think Richard Branson is cute? Stop blushing, boxboy.

My O2 mask says, "Beards Will Not Seal" - pretty much says it all.

I don't care what kind of bag the guy totes, but we've got some wannabe Shaggies on the line that think they look good with goatees and long hair. Maybe the new JB union will be able to influence our professional standards down the line.

movies stars glamorized smoking in the 50s, i'm thiking this is a celebrity look alike thng.

the only guy i can think of with a new york kind of style is detective green on law and order

Individuality....

I think Goatees are pretty cool. It is ok to be an individual.

I am willing to go ahead and express my individuality. I think the most appropriate way to do it would be to bash Instructordude's head in with a shovel.

-What a loser!

I thought so too but there are plenty of Lufthansa and SAS captains walking around looking like Captain Smith of the Titanic....

I seem to recall the defining statement when I was at the airlines. It went something like this.

Right Ear..Buccaneer, Left Ear, Fu...n Queer. I would always them confused so I was really weary of anyone with ear rings period. Ear ring and a goatee. No way!

Where do we draw the line? FWIW, I've seen way more fat bastards - both guys and gals - in our goofy blue get-ups than I have dudes with goatees.

To me, someone who is overweight looks far more unprofessional than someone with some goofy facial hair.

At least it's not a "goat-tee", though.

 

[Saabslime]

All you holier than thou types who think you know what "professional" is or isn't for THIS industry really need to get a life. It's way to subjective a term for anybody to be right or wrong about appearances or traveling accessories, etc. so live and let live already. :beer:

 

[cal73cap]

Not only do the goat-tees look unprofessional, but I had a Jetblue captain address me as Dude! Very disrespectful. I would never dream of saying Hey Dude, to another pilot. Am I just getting old? Also, I forgot that everything is Awesome these days. I used to just use that word to describe the Grand Canyon. Maybe someone can address me as Captain Awesome Dude!

No name calling, but I do think that this does help lower the bar for pilots (as does the blue shirt).

I also thought that there was some type of restriction with the masks. How does JB get away with that limitation?

Also, do these guys, with go-tees, have any problems jumpseating on other carriers?

 

[RogerMOSA]

I can live with the goatees, but we have some dudes with "flavor-savors." It's hard to take a guy seriously with one of those. They look gay.

Not sure I agree completely about the blue shirts. The problem isn't necessarily the blue shirts in and of themselves, it's the fact that the airport ops people and flight attendants look the same as the pilots.

As for the masks, I had an FAA inspector ask about it while on the jumpseat about 7 years ago, but there is no specific rule he could quote that would be enforceable. Now, if someone asphyxiates on smoke because of a goatee or beard, then the rule will get written, right?

Here's the big question, did the guys with goatees have the chutzpah to come to their interviews with goatees, or did they grow them after they put on their best "professional" face to make a good impression?
