Does anyone else see this "idea" that we actually will have any control over our future/present uniform really amount for a wedge for divisions that Mgmt can let simmer throughout the pilot group as we supposedly negotiate a contract?

This exactly. I stated such in the survey.

Am I worried about a divided pilot group? Yes. Do I think opinions or jokes about the hat will be a legitimate wedge issue? Not in the slightest...

All you anti-hatters will soon be cancelled. The uniforms will not change. Death, taxes and the titanic uniform are certainties. You may get the beard to go with it though. Outside the aircraft I am conducting a perpetual exterior preflight. If I can see the condition of the tail from the ground then the vantage point from 2 concourses away is for checking the bubble antenna for frost.

No you didn’t. No one here believes that any of our customers stopped what they were doing to tell you that they liked your little hat.

While I don't like the hat I'd rather get rid of ties with short sleeve shirts than to get rid of the hat.

Ties with short sleeve shirts are absolutely asinine and indefensible. Military "summer" dress uniforms don't have ties. Do they look "unprofessional"? What other profession wears ties with short sleeve shirts outside of us and Dilbert cartoon satire?

I will gladly look like a submarine captain so long as we ditch these stupid *******ing face diapers. Would love to see Delta throw it's weight at the CDC and Old Man River

Ended with being asked about the hat and PB said the hat is still in our future. As expected! Maybe we’ll get beards …
Hats I think will be optional, no way most of the pilot group wants them unless they screwed with the numbers to make us wear them.

Is there any other major carrier for whom hats are mandatory wear besides us?
