Stuff like that starts from the top down. At the regional I was at, we got fitted for uniforms. At Sprit, we had a union guy come in during indoc and give us stuff that other pilots had donated. That kind of set the stage when we were all wondering if our rent check was going to clear, while trying to fade a medical bankruptcy during training.
