One leg 2 inches longer than other.

One sleeve FO stripes. Other sleeve no stripes.
I can't tell if this is a success story or a fail story.

It’s not a bug, it’s a feature. 😉

Seriously though, Quality Control is clearly not GPS’s strong suit…

Hopefully we didn’t wind up paying the full contract to these clowns

Never have I worn a more ill fitting uniform than this one

Why doesn't Delta just return to the tried and true Abbotts? Or would that be too big of a piece of humble pie to admit that they messed up?

Ecco's are by far the most comfortable shoes I've ever owned.

Step into the NB Fresh Foam series.

Or maybe this beauty if you like the buckle look over laces.


I've encountered the latter in the cockpit. They both look great with Lulu's and Northface.

Based on what I’ve gleaned from here and I have no facts to back it up, it seems like Abbots broke up with Delta, not the other way around.

JZ has stated this too. Tale that for what it’s worth.

Originally, they couldn't provide a online portal ordering system. So they weren't considered in the RFP when we chose HPI. Delta then prohibited new hires from ordering from them which began the war. Then, when the roll out was collapsing, Abbots sent an email to everyone on their list basically kicking sand in the eye of the company which really bruised JZs ego. I believe they actually tried to get a cease and desist sent to them.
