I make about that now but still take the time to dry clean my pants and iron my shirts. Its about how you feel about yourself not about how you feel about your company. Do you think people around the airport that see you think "oh this guys company must be robbing him blind judging from the way he looks". No, they are judging you. They are saying to themselves "what ever happened to this once prestigious profession, these guys all look homeless now."

All this achieves in the public eye is to make it look like we really do not deserve the wage we think we should be getting. It really does destroy the confidence of passengers. I don't get it why people agree to make 1600 a month by agreeing to do a job and then whine about it and disgrace the profession by looking like a slob. Why did you want to get into this line of work in the first place?
