I’ve less than 5 years left and I’ll spring for the single breasted jacket ASAP, if for no other reason than it’ll bother the type that’s in love with the horse blanket.
how many of those fortune 50 people were wearing uniforms?

Along with never having to think about work once I go home, one of the greatest benefits of this job is not having to spend a fortune on a wardrobe and constantly deciding what to wear.

Pilots may gripe about particulars about the specific uniform, but all in all, I think it’s great to have to keep up with professional fashion trends.

We’re so well reguarded and professional that we get frozen hungry man turkey for Thanksgiving.

You all were in the wrong base, I had a pretty good turkey lunch with a good dessert.

Serious question. Why is a single breasted more comfortable? Unless you are going unbuttoned, they are the same level of (dis)comfort.

Executives don't wear hats either, so comparing our uniform to their business attire is sort of silly.

(It's a uniform, not a suit.)

Hats and double-breasted forever!

It could be worse, how's about a Swiss Guard at the Vatican.
