At showtime for Paris-Asia you can have the crew wearing:

blouse (blazer if you're insecure)

top-coat for blazer with white shirt underneath

leather jacket

cop-coat (North Face Parka)

all are technically in uniform.

I own all of the above except the Parka.
Don't care what we choose, but we should pick one.
It shouldn't come from management, but from us.
Pins, lanyards, and bag tags are great, but everyone looking the same is also an easy way of showing solidarity.

You've gotta have a sense of humor to work at FedEx. Otherwise you're in for a long a gloomy career.

Don't forget where you came from...

Not sure what you mean about that but it's something I will never forget. BTW the comment was a take on words of wisdom from the former CP over there.

You guys make me laugh......not with you ...but at you.....KwigKongTunt....Blouse/Tunic=insecure...Really?Really?....what a stupid thing to say. Bottom line is there are several combinations that are within uniform policy.....so pick the one you like best. Personally I don't own a leather jacket......I think it makes you look like John Revolta in a "B" grade movie....or some pathetic mid-life crisis guy.......JMHO. But if it is your cuppa tea...go for it. It is within regs and a viable option. The only real question I have seen this thread so far is...Hey "O", if the parka is not good enough why is it listed as acceptable attire....??????? Discuss

You might be the only guy on property that doesn't prefer the leather jacket. Or maybe one of 10-15. I'm laughing at you and your blouse.

Never underestimate the large, but tender ego's that we work with.

I was referring to an earlier posters comment about "blouses for girls"

the word tunic didn't appear in my post.

Don't forget the infinite styles of sweaters and sweater vest.

Notice how some places are called airlines and some are called outfits? You know what the difference is? Outfits have leather jackets.
