My wife would have beat the $hit out of me if I left her around that time!!

With regard to the hat, there's a difference between Andy Griffith and Barney Fife. Krash is an Andy Griffith kind of guy where he would want you to wear your hat per policy, but he's not Barney Fife about it. That's what I was trying to tell you. But if you still want to disrespect him for that, I'm sure he won't lose much sleep.

Oh, and disrespect is NOT a verb.

Guys,
I don't understand why there is such a big deal about wearing hats? Sometimes we sound like toddlers. The company asks for it - wear it. Tons of people don’t like tons of things about their jobs.
If you don't like it make sure it is the right size and looks good. Take it to dry cleaning once in a while with the rest of your uniform.
And besides, what's next? Backpacks, wrinkled shirts, dirty shoes? Spiky hear? Earphones? Nipples, visible through your shirt? Crying about how delta tickets should be flown by delta pilots? But from the way we look - what's the difference?
Maybe I am exaggerating here, but can we really ask for 100% pay restoration if we look like pilots who make $20/hour?
PS. NO, NOT RUNNING for CPO. No, not a Marine. Yes, worked for a company where hats were optional and didn't wear it for years. No, not balding. Yes, tired of seeing pilots who look like trash. Thx.
