speaking of which what is the correct answer in the interview " you see a fellow pilot not wearing his hat.." ?
"I will take mine off as well so as to not make him feel alone. Dignity and respect and all that."

I've had issues with other pilots not wearing the hat at work and prefer to talk to the individual on the side without anyone looking. If they get an attitude or tell me they don't have to wear it then the situation will be elevated to the chief pilot level.

It is all of our jobs to monitor our fellow crew members compliance with uniform standards.
it's apparently a job you've taken on yourself in order to impress your management handlers.

Everyone of us is a leader in the terminal. The public look at us for leadership. Take some pride in yourself.

I'll give it a shot next time the traveling public, from first class customer to children, see me in uniform with my hands raised above my head as I either get shot by radiation or am aggressively patted down until they've "met resistance" in my groin.

I'm sure their logic, as yours, will be along the lines of "I have so much respect for this pilot because, although he has allowed himself to be humiliated in public, he stills has my respect--because he wears a hat."

Please don't ever leave this website. I get a kick out of some of the things you write.
 
Few pilots get fired for a single event that doesn't involve bent metal or spilled blood. If he had been previously warned and even given time off, it sounds like he was sacked for insubordination. I'd bet there's even more to it...

You hit the nail on the head.

This was a classic response. Thank you.

really? somehow I have a feeling that isn't how it would really go down
 
I highly doubt anyone would be fired for not wearing a hat....probably several other things as well. However I would guess that he was on probation? If someone is a real tool and you wait till he is off probation now you are stuck with him. Im sure there is more to the story.
 
Pilot was walking down the concourse without his hat. 3rd Assistant Supernumary Deputy Chief Pilot walks up and asks him "where is your hat?"

Pilot replies "Its in my bag...it's too small to wear"

Chief asks "Why don't you get a bigger hat?"

Pilot replies "Then it wouldn't fit in my bag!"

Nu

Is this a joke?
 
Remember there's three sides to a coin. He said, he said and this thin truth around the middle.

Unless you are a CP... mind your own business.

Dang it, stop quoting I.D.

There's a reason he's on the ignore list.....

That's easy.

First, pull said pilot aside and ask him to call in sick.
Second, counsel the pilot about his hat non-wearing problem.
If that doesn't work, talk to Pro Stans.
If all else fails, file an ASAP report.

I heard Gen Lee got fired from Arby's for not wearing his hat!

You must get kicked in the privates very often by fellow pilots. That seems like the only logical outcome of what could happen to someone like yourself.

Hahaa, I remember hearing about that exchange from J.K. (the CP who supposedly flew the line in a polo and Khakis).
