So we can go around in circles all day long about how pilots appear in the public eye. There isn’t a person here who’s perfect, certainly myself included. Shoes, shirts, backpacks, fat guts, whatever... I don’t know many flight offices who require you to report for inspection prior to taking a walk through the terminal. Perfection is not the point of why I initially posted this thread.

This is just me here, but I take a personal responsibility to professionally represent both my airline and profession when I’m in the public eye. People are watching whether you think it or not. So yes, I am judgemental when some fella wants to rock his Bose down the concourse. It looks like you don’t give a 💩.
