Thanks
WAY OFF TOPIC FOR ATLAS…


I only have 1,150 TT and got called for an interview while down in MIA with a 135 operator foor an SIC spot. I have 2 suits, but was informed by my brother, who is a Director with another TRAVEL INDUSTRY COMPANY, that no one wears suits for an interview…so I wore BLACK DRESS SLACKS with a LONG SLEEVE DRESS SHIRT with a CHECK PATTERN, and BROWN LACE-UP DRESS SHOES AND BROWN BELT.
I got rejected and was told it was because the DO is a stickler for guys wearing suits…even though he looked like he’d pulled his shirt through a knot hole that morning.

Next time, I’m wearing my BLACK ON BLACK STRIPE CANALI with a WHITE FRENCH CUFF SHIRT and a POWER TIE…
