NWA/DAL/Hat?

[Butters]

The DAL uniform is by far(t) the sharpest uniform out there.

sure, if you like looking like you are prince harry flying for the royal navy.

i bet nwa guys will negotiate the db off the property. i can't see them wearing that thing.

no offense intended, but the db looks a little pompous to me. way too formal.

then again, it is better than leather and ipod.

I just wear the g*d d*mn hat. BIG DEAL. The company says so..the regs say so....it doesn't give me spinal problems...so I wear it.

Ummm.... Huh?

Company Regs.
If you want to use your negotiation power for a jacket then do so. I personally would want to keep what DAL has and get something else.

No kidding. Who really cares what they make you wear to work??

I don't really think it's at the top of the list. I wish that was the biggest fish to fry.

I thought you were suggesting that there's a FAR saying that you have to wear a hat; hence my amusement.

Personally I do think hats look more professional but they are a FOD hazard on the ramp and I always get really hot wearing one in the terminal. Besides, I always thought it was rude to wear a hat indoors, no?

I'm proud to wear my hat.

You do not hear Doctors whining about wearing their white lab coats do you? I am sure some hate it, but it is what lets us know he is a Dr, and not a Nurse or Orderly. It goes with the "profession". It is what people expect to see

Ahhhh, the Dr./pilot comparison once again. So what does that make WN pilots who are indistinguishable from the nurses/FAs? Corporate businessjet passengers do not think that hats go with the "profession." In fact most passengers think a pilot wearing a hat indoors while wearing an ill fitting and wrinkled suit with pants 2 inches too short and filthy shoes is unprofessional.

The hat and the uniform are the big issues these days?

FWIW I'll wear a pink furry bunnysuit for more pay and a steady career... ;-)

No, the point is that it is the accepted/expected attire for an Airline Pilot as a Lab coat is the accepted/expected attire for a Dr.. The corporate gigs are a lot different. You and I know that.
