Nothing like seeing one of my "brothers" walking through the terminal without a hat, shirt wrinkled, loosened tie, head down, and looking sloppy. I get so tired of hearing pilots bitch about the public doesn't have any respect for pilots. About how management doesn't have any respect for pilots. Here's a thought...have a little respect for yourself. YOU'RE AN EMBARRASSMENT TO THE INDUSTRY! You want to be treated like a professional? Act like a professional. Look like a professional. With very few exceptions, you've all busted your asses to get to where you are. You've all EARNED the right to put on your uniform. You've EARNED the right to wear your hat. Quit trying to lower the bar! Stop looking like a bum. Stand up tall when you walk through the terminal. Have some pride in your uniform. Represent our profession proudly. You want to hate this job, go ahead...but don't drag me down in the eyes of the public with you.
