Lesson finally learned for me I guess.

Good to know.

We’re not supposed to wear the parka or the karbon liners without the outer layer. But if you want to wear the parka liner by itself and look goofy as hell, by all means, cheer up my hub turn with a chuckle.

We need a FCIF that states if your belly is this big (pictures as an example), you must purchase this length of tie. If the largest tie available at M&H doesn’t come to your belt, then your flights will no longer be catered.

I definitely don't. In the AF if you get called out by a shoe clerk it's great to be able to throw it back in their face, but it only works when you know the regs better than they do... I just wanted to know if there was a reference somewhere I didn't know about that this CA was using to make his "correction".

I came to the wrong place to ask obviously.

Anyway, we can walk and chew gum at the same time.

Who cares what the corporation thinks.

As long as the left seat human can move metal. Could not care less what he is wearing.

Thanks for that. Either I forgot it was there or I completely missed it. Unfortunately it still doesn’t answer my question as to why it matters if we wear business causal if the carrier allows less formal wear.
