I'm starting a new side gig. Stone washing hagar pants to just the right shade of "not black." Get your orders in early before the rush.

I’ll take five please! Link your $5 web series instructional on how to DIY it too.

It’s going to be great when we have THREE different uniforms walking around the terminals this winter.

Way to kill the whole notion of being uniform.

We’ll fit right in with the FAs 😬

All those pins are for how many times scheduling tried to ask if willing to do a 2 hour extension 👽 during a career .

The old “Delta has the best pilots in the world because we look the best”.

At the same time we look the best, we stay at the Sonesta and make us fly sim 5 & 8 (737 fleet), which is the best training environment money can buy. Then give us a 5 hour sit followed by a min rest overnight along with the other paring nonsense. Does all this encompass true professionalism?

WTF is in the water down there in Bug Tussle?

While I hate to get into intergenrational sniping, it occurred to me the other day that:

The old pilots want the hat because it covers their bald spot(s)

The young pilots put a lot of work into that glorious mane of hair, and a hat screws it up.

(Enjoy it while it lasts, you lucky bastards. Male pattern baldness eventually comes for most of us)

more like how many times that generation offered to take the extension, or the reroute, etc, to get the “mission” done.

I’m not sure what point you’re trying to make

Agreed, and business casual sets a good tone for a training environment imo. Maybe I'm biased because BC was the norm at every other aviation job I've held, but shorts and tshirts just sounds sloppy.

Anyway, it's really not a burden to wear a collar, real shoes, and pants that aren't denim. :rolleyes:

SW requires jeans at worst during training. “Nice “ tennis shoes can be worn. Shorts aren’t allowed. Another delta poster above you just likes to make things up.

Delta’s version of business casual is pretty outdated. Take a look at the rest of the company at the GO, plenty of jeans and still dressed professionally.

Someone must’ve ruined it for the rest of us and showed up in grass stained jeans or something.

Um….there’s ways to prevent male pattern baldness, you know.
