Contrary to popular belief, the pilot isn’t actually part of the uniform. The uniform is the attire worn by the individual to blend in with coworkers of the same company and job.

So you’re wrong, and your post reflects more on you than the individuals you attempted to belittle.

You must be based in ATL.

BMI isn’t a great way to measure health. You can be muscular and over 30 bmi easily.

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.

I hate the hat. And yes they did. I don't know why that's so hard to believe.

I mean sure, I’d trade $800 for $100,000 too, but as far as I am aware that is not the option we have infront of us. but as our contract goes, we should be given the attire we are expected to wear, regardless of what they are paying us. This is not a either or…not all contract improvements should revolve around pay tables.

There is this guy named Drum on here. You should send him a PM and go grab a beer. I think y’all would hit it off.

Can they expense all dry cleaning or just while on the road?

I don't think they have to be on the road. I don't see this as much of a gain to the contract. I dry clean my jacket once, maybe twice a year, and that's pretty much it.

I dry clean my pants after every trip. Or can they only expense the jacket.
