I swear, with the decline in horse racing, pilots are the only thing keeping the 2 dollar bill afloat in this country

It’s always funny going into a bank and asking for $100 in $2s

It's better than asking for $1s.

well wearing polyester clothes is linked to infertility, especially if they’re tight. And cancer 💀

...and I paid for a vasectomy. (face palm) Waisted tax free greenbacks too. Now we know why cancer is up since the 70s.

During the winter I wear a black wool coat from Jos. A. Bank. It's allowed per the FOM and actually looks nice with the hat.
For the walk-arounds during fall I have a zip up black fleece.

How does it fit over your required uniform coat?

My wool coat fits over the top just fine. I made sure to get one that was just long enough to cover the bottom of the blazer. I won’t win the “toughest guy doing the -20° walk around in a short sleeve shirt” award, but I also won’t have frost bitten nipples.

Not a good look on anyone! :-)

I suspect the CPO will be in force for uniform compliance (button jackets, hats, backpacks, ear buds, ...) once the new suits are here.

Funny thing about $1 bills. Years ago, when FA's took cash for liquor sales, some chuckelhead in steerage would pull out $100 to pay for a $4 beer. Sometimes the FA would come up to the flight deck looking for change for $100. As a FE, I would ask if they thought the pax was looking for free st*t. If the FA was perturbed at the pax's "scamming" behavior, I would reach into my suitcase and pull out a banded package of $1 bills equaling $100. for her $100 bill.
We all got a chuckle at the pax reaction when the FA gave them $96 in change, all in ones.


This was back in the day of fight engineers, $4 beers, people actually used money, and Delta was not cashless. I know.....unimaginable! Right?

“Frost-Bitten Nipples” would be a great name for a rock band.
