Are you asking me to what end? Or in general, referencing the company?

Maybe I’m just imagining it, and I know people will disagree, but I think our passengers respond better/more positively to us in our uniform.

I’m on the other end of the spectrum. Pilots/flight attendants/mechanics/gate agents… each position needs 1 uniform. (2 if we’re going to do summer/winter.). It looks better as a group and has functionality identifying who works here.

The ultimate experiment in comfort was years ago when we did BCRF month and as an employee (not pilots) if you made a donation, you could wear a pink t-shirt and jeans ALL MONTH.

It was almost comical watching passengers come up the jet bridge and couldn’t find the gate agent to ask about connections, particularly international connecting customers that didn’t understand the fundraiser or speak English. Imagine the chaos of a bunch of t-shirts trying to corral passengers evacuating a jet if we had an emergency. On top of that, we looked like trash. Some can pull off pick-your-own-jeans day, some insist on 3 sizes too small!

Dress for the job you want. If we all dress like train engineers, expect to get paid like a train engineer.

I respectfully disagree that “nobody cares”.

Anything I’ve written has been solely my opinion on the matter and what I’ve witnessed anecdotally over 18 years and eight different uniforms.

Even in this thread we’ve seen two wives who do, in fact, care.

My guess is color is intentionally not black so no more Haggar or Lululemon.
Wonder if Haggar would match the color for us?

has anyone seen the new uniform color? I’ve been told it will still be black, and in the pictures from PBs email, the female options certainly look black in the picture.

Thus my comment about L rotations.

I get your point, but it’s 1/3, minimum. Your bidding success is nowhere near the norm.

All I know is that the samples in the bases looked like AA tried to change their uniforms to look like the traditional Delta one but didn't want to admit it.
