The most amusing part of this is that the ACA stripped tie is now specifically mentioned as an approved uniform piece in the employee handbook. Yet, she still can’t let it go it seems.
My theory is that she’s bitter about it because she was the brains behind the “new” stripped tie that was developed years back and was supposed to be introduced, but was shot down by the union because the company wanted pilots to pay for it if they wanted it. Now, ACA produces a version of the “old” stripped tie and pilots are bending over backwards to pay for it and wear them. I think she may be taking it personally…
