They teach some tough flying in the armed forces, but did you guys never practice PAs? Sad.
And insubordination>not wearing your hat
We did a version of PAs when briefing crews, generals, and squadrons, except never from behind the counter in the gate area--that environment is extremely intimidating!!!
The pilots not wearing the hat are the ones who have a different background than you, is that about right? Too funny.
Actually, have you ever seen a female pilot not wearing the hat? Must be a guy thing--in fact, since those guys must be different from me I'm guessing they all are trying to compensate for something.
But I think you're on to something: military folks always wore their hats. But their leaders did as well. So we just need RA and the boys to start wearing management uniforms with hats and set the example. All will be right with the world.
