Stickers on the bag? Come on seriously, that is a mark of professionalism and something to be proud of because your bag is sticker free?

Not really. Professionalism is a choice you make BEFORE you take that job and before you start each day of work. It isn't something you decide to do once you are there (unless you are trying to make yourself over, and by all means...).

It's simple really: You have two choices. Professional or unprofessional. Will today be the day you choose to look sharp, come prepared, operate by the book and not cut corners, review all material for that leg, work methodically, etc. OR, do the opposite.

It starts and ends with yourself. Take responsibility. Take Pride. Don't use excuses or blame others. Ask yourself if the problem really is with your long sit, your $21,000 a year, etc. Could it be something else?

(And yes, flight case stickers are great, don't think I haven't had my share in the past).
