In my time flying as Captain I used to get other pilots asking me why United First Officers wore 4 stripes.
I would tell them I have no idea what they are talking about.
They would say "Your name badge says FO but you have 4 stripes."
I'd reply. "I have 4 stripes because I'm a Captain. I work in Flight Operations."
Maybe we should change the designator to SG and when they ask us what that means we can tell them "Sky Gods".
