Herk is working on the stick consumption, though.
tunes is way more committed than I, but I follow similar protocol to him. Mostly because I'm just that lazy.

The catch is you’re not allowed to wear your bus driver jacket, ski coat, leather jacket ect.. with the uniform. I have seen some pilots looking pretty ridiculous freezing their butts off just to avoid the coat.
