It would seem that the "red" is now firmly in control is one of the guys that high up can blatantly and willfully blow off something in the policy manual. and last I heard, the uniform was in the policy manual. SO if he DOESN'T say something to one of you guys that is carrying your hat in hand as you walk down the concourse, he has already lost my respect.
First of all, operation Visine happened. You can pretend that it didn't, but we've watched nearly every one of our best guys in training and management get replaced by southies. However, the promotion of Krash (after being removed as part of Visine) also clearly shows that this process might not only be over, but might be reversing. It's good to see.

With regard to the hat, there's a difference between Andy Griffith and Barney Fife. Krash is an Andy Griffith kind of guy where he would want you to wear your hat per policy, but he's not Barney Fife about it. That's what I was trying to tell you. But if you still want to disrespect him for that, I'm sure he won't lose much sleep.
